Showcasing never-before-seen materials from the newly-cataloged collections at ONE Archives at the USC Libraries, Our Patch: LGBTQ+ Life from Cradle to Grave is One Institute’s tribute to the diverse yet deeply intertwined histories of LGBTQ+ community care and movement-building in Los Angeles. The archival ephemera on display — including photographs, videos, oral histories, printed matter, correspondence, and artist books — will provide insight into the multifaceted organizing strategies and care practices undertaken by LGBTQ+ activists at every stage of life, from youth to old age.
Our Patch: LGBTQ+ Life from Cradle to Grave will be on view at the Los Angeles LGBT Center’s Advocate & Gochis Galleries from October 1-October 31, 2024.
Exhibition viewing hours correspond to Circa: Queer Histories Festival programs scheduled at the Los Angeles LGBT Center.
