LGBTQ History Walking Tour of West DuPont and P St
Sunday, November 10 | 1:30 pm
Dupont Circle Fountain
Join us for a BRAND NEW History Walking Tour of West DuPont and P St!
RHP’s Director of Archiving has created a walking tour of the west side of DuPont neighborhood and the P Street corridor.
Do you know about the Gay Liberation Front in the 1970s? Do you miss Badlands, Apex, or Mr. P’s? Does your Lesbian History knowledge include the founding of the Lesbian Avengers? Or how they swallowed fire at the First Dyke March? Have you heard of cruising at the P Street Peach? Did you know where the Gay Pride Day was hosted in the 1980s?
Meet at DuPont Circle Fountain, bring a water bottle, and ask good questions!
Free of charge, donations requested, registration required.
