Cross-Promotion Requests

The GLBT Historical Society partners on a variety of projects with related cultural organizations, and often helps to promote events and programs related to LGBTQ history that are produced by other groups. The society considers cross-promotional requests as its time and resources allow. We prioritize cross-promotion of programs that high­light the diversity and intersec­tion­ality of LGBTQ communities.

All cross-promotion requests must be submitted through the application form. Please fill out the application form a minimum of eight (8) weeks before the date of your event. We aim to reply to all requests within five (5) business days.

If interested in pursuing fiscal sponsorship for your event, please email donate@glbthistory.org.
