LEAPING LAVENDER LATKES! Honoring Jewish LGBT New Yorkers this Hanukkah

** FREE **

LGBT Jewish New Yorkers have made a profound impact on the American arts scene, LGBT activism, and religious life. Join us for this virtual tour of NYC sites that connect us with the legacies of composer/conductor Leonard Bernstein, archivist and activist Joan Nestle, poet Allen Ginsberg, the Congregation Beit Simchat Torah, and more. From the family residence of PFLAG co-founder Jeanne Manford in Queens, to international figure Magnus Hirschfeld’s stay at Manhattan’s Hotel New Yorker, we’ll visit hotels, private homes, houses of worship, and other locations that provide a visceral connection to LGBT Jewish history.

This event is made possible with generous support from American Express, Consolidated Edison, and NYC & Co. Foundation
