About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

Join The History Project and Coach Justice of Fitness 4 All Bodies for a morning of reflection, resilience, and remembrance as we honor the legacy of LGBTQIA2S+ communities in Boston and beyond.

At a time when queer and trans lives are under attack and LGBTQIA2S+ histories are being erased from classrooms and the public record, this event invites us to gather, remember, and affirm that our stories matter.

🗓 Sunday, August 10, 2025

🕚 11:00 AM ET

📍 Club Café, 209 Columbus Ave, Boston, MA

🎟️ Tickets support speaker honorariums and light bites — limited free tickets available.

We’ll begin with a short presentation from The History Project, tracing national milestones and local moments that have shaped Boston’s queer and trans communities across generations.

Then, Coach Justice of Fitness 4 All Bodies will lead a dynamic panel discussion with:

  • Grace Sterling Stowell, Executive Director of BAGLY
  • Ricardo Martinez, Executive Director of GLAD Law
  • Ellice Patterson, Founder & Director of Abilities Dance
  • Ifé Franklin, multidisciplinary artist behind The Indigo Project

These incredible leaders will share stories of community care, activism, artistry, and resistance — inviting us to reflect on the past and recommit to the future.

🎤 This is a cabaret-style seated event. We will offer light bites included with your ticket — and their full menu and bar will also be available for you to purchase.

- Free tickets are available in limited quantities. If free tickets are sold out when you go to register, email us at info@historyproject.org and we’ll get you set up!

- If you would like to donate to sponsor the honorariums or more free community tickets, please give here.

Let’s gather. Let’s remember. Let’s resist erasure, together.
