Becoming LGBTQI-Friendly
Sonoma County LGBTQI Timeline on Display at Fair
Sonoma County has always had an LGBTQI presence. But how did Sonoma County become an LGBTQI-friendly place to live? What did gender nonconformity look like in this area during the 1970s and 80s? How did Guerneville become the vacation destination for gay men from around the US? Did you know the Women’s Studies programs at SSU and SRJC were two of the first such programs in California? How did Sonoma County help stop a national anti-LGBTQ movement? Which organizations worked to save the lives of people dying from HIV/AIDS?
The Sonoma County LGBTQI Timeline tells this history through images and the words of the people who lived here. Find these answers, and more, when you look at the Sonoma County LGBTQI History Timeline. You can find it in the Garrett Building, just inside the Main Gate on Brookwood Avenue.
Tina Dungan and Shad Reinstein are the creators of the Sonoma County LGBTQI Timeline, which premiered at PRIDE 2018. As they research the LGBTQI history of Sonoma County, the timeline continues to expand.
