Join us for a conversation with internationally recognized multi-media artist Francisco Alvarado-Juárez about his latest book, Gay Liberation: New York City Pride Parades 1975-1976, featuring images from Francisco’s 2025 exhibition, Out of the Closets! Into the Street!: New York City Pride March 1975-1976, which was exhibited at the Hispanic Society in 2025 as the second installation for Arte en el Alto Manhattan. Featuring 18 photographs, this exhibition showcased the racial and ethnic diversity of the early Pride parades and revealed the nuanced bonds of kinship formed among marchers from disparate backgrounds.
The conversation will be moderated by New York Public Library Director of Collection Development and Global Studies, Jason Baumann,
