Take a guided tour of Downtown New Haven, but seen through a queer lens. Discover a hidden history—four centuries in the making—among the nine squares in the country’s first planned city. See where Cole Porter got his kick from champagne…Doors’ front man Jim Morrison was bloodied and arrested…Bette Davis had a bumpy night…Judy and Liza played both sides of the street…Jodi Foster’s hang out the night President Reagan was shot…frisky freshmen went subterranean for their meet and greets…and the site of one of Connecticut’s first public gay executions in 1646.

New Haven has a long and rich tradition of cultural exchange with its Sister Cities around the world-Leon, Amalfi, Tetlanohcan, Hue, Afula, Freetown, Avignon, and Changsha. This tour will highlight the relationships between New Haven and its partners in other countries with guest speakers, presentations, music, art and food.

We invite you to sing along with the choruses of our music, and if the Spirits move you, to dance with us as well.
