Chicago History - Downtown LGBTQ Stories on BeamZ

One of the things I love about creating tours is discovering all the rich history hiding around us. There are so many amazing stories explaining Chicago's evolution to where we are today. The "Chicago History" series focuses on revealing these tales.

A reason why Chicago has one of the largest LGBTQ populations in the United States today is because the city is so accepting and supportive, but it was not always that way. After being forced to hide in the shadows for generations, leaders emerged to fight hard for the equality the city's LGBTQ residents enjoy today. This tour shares stories of Chicago's LGBTQ experience from the 19th century to today as we stroll through the city's downtown.

There’s no registration cost, but tips are appreciated. All you have to do is register in advance here, and then watch the live-streamed tour from any web browser.
