The Colorado Historical Foundation has received a grant from the History Colorado State Historical Fund to develop a survey plan for sites associated with LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer) history in Colorado. Previous surveys and studies of LGBTQ sites will be gathered and will inform the survey plan. This project, hopefully the first in a series, is aimed to provide local governments and the greater public with information about tangible historic sites that convey LGBTQ history in Colorado.
Such sites may be where LGBTQ activism and organization has taken place, where community leaders have lived and worked, or where the community has found safe places for gathering, creating, and affirming their lives and identities. Your input on what sites are important to this history is invaluable, and we appreciate your participation. If you would prefer to direct us to a local study of LGBTQ sites or share with us a list of sites rather than complete this form for each site you know of, please contact Cindy Nasky at
