Published in Organizations, The Arts-->
The ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives honors the past, celebrates the present, and enriches the future of all lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. We foster acceptance of sexual and gender diversity by supporting education and research about our heritage and experience worldwide. ONE is dedicated to collecting, preserving, documenting, studying, and communicating our history, our challenges, and our aspirations.
The scope of the collections of ONE National Gay & Lesbian Archives is international, with a special focus on the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender history of Los Angeles. ONE’s archival collections document the vast, collective history of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community through the records and personal papers of activists and ordinary citizens, as well as the records of its political, social, educational and cultural organizations. The collections include manuscripts, photographs, memorabilia, graphics, ephemera, and other historically significant materials.
