Lesbian Herstory Archives

Community Centers · Illinois · Free

Brooklyn-based archive of lesbian history and culture. A starting point for finding free or low-cost programming — counseling, classes, social events, food pantries. Most LGBTQ+ community centers are free to enter, drop-in welcome, and post their week's calendar online. Volunteer-led centers tend to be more flexible and welcoming than highly-professionalized ones; both kinds work. Open at no cost to LGBTQ+ Illinois residents and the people supporting them.
