A A critical factor in LGBTQ history has been the establishment of our own organizations to meet the needs and express the values of our community. To chronicle and pay homage to those organizations, ONE Archives has produced Defiant Spaces: 60 Years of Queer Organizations in L.A., an exhibition exploring the history of over 40 LGBTQ organizations in the Los Angeles region. Defiant Spaces will be on view June 7 - July 5, 2012 as the centerpiece of the City of Los Angeles' LGBT Heritage Month.
Parking for the opening reception is located at 200 North Los Angeles Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012 on the westside of Los Angeles between Temple & 1st across the street from Parker Center.
