Join us in the archives every Monday evening for The History Project's evening hours. Explore our collections, meet interesting people, and learn more about Boston's LGBT history!

If you'd like to attend, please email or call us beforehand so we can best plan for your visit. Monday evening hours are occasionally canceled due to conflicting History Project-related events. For up-to-date information, email andrew.elder@historyproject.org or call 617-266-7733.

Get Involved: The History Project's Transgender Project.

Join THP as we embark on a new initiative focused on recounting the history of Boston's transgender community. As with our past exhibits, we want the community to take ownership of the exhibit and guide us in determining its content.

To find out how you can become involved, contact Andrew Elder, THP's Operations Coordinator, at 617.266.7733 or at andrew.elder@historyproject.org.


Sponsored in part by a grant from JSI.
