Empowering songs from the 70s and an exhibit depicting LGBTQ history are featured at events in Fort Lauderdale, and they are free.

The events in October are ideal for participating in LGBTQ History Month.

This LGBTQ History Month, we take time to recognize and honor the many trailblazers who made progress so that we can continue activism efforts today — from those at The Stonewall Rebellion (1969) like Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera; to activists like Bayard Rustin and artists like Audre Lorde.
