Stonewall National Museum, Archives & Library

Stonewall museum is attached to library but in a separate wing. Great collection of LGBT books and memorabilia. Informative pride month exhibit and video playing. Books for sale or check out with a library card. Free but donations appreciated.

I was somewhat reluctant to enter this museum thinking it would be a downer. I am glad I went. What struck me was how relatively recently the GLTBQ community has faced adversity (and still does) and how far we have come for basic (not extra) rights. As a younger person who does not think twice about expressing who I am, you realize that just a few decades ago it was so different and you never can take things for granted. Everyone should visit this museum for that reason.

This was a gay oh time and thanks for all the ones before us that made it possible for us to have a feeling of safe to be open and ourself here and in our daily life .the information and the reminder was mind boggling and impact my thoughts and prayers are with you who passed and fought and made a difference in the life of millions of us today .much respect and thanks for the volunteer and staff who make this kind of thing possible for us at no charge .I hope folks will come see and be inspired by it as we were and continue the effort afforded us and the ones to come after us .god bless and thanks again for your all amazing and appreciate all who have and do and will make this possible.

Nice place. Located in a building that also houses for Fort Lauderdale reading center, the Fort Lauderdale library and the art center. Plenty of parking and easy access to the building

This gallery/museum was very informative, with much information about LGBTQ+ history, and the woman who was worling there was lovely and helpful. It was a really lovely experience to view their exhibit for the 50th anniversary of Stonewall and see images and flyers from the timeline - and it was also lovely to see the timeline that started before and went well beyond Stonewall - a really nice view of the hiatory of the community through time.

What a great place. Even though I'm gay myself and I know our queer history, I still got very thoughtful there. I had tears in my eyes. I am a tourist from Germany and I am really happy to have been here. I was only too happy to donate 10 dollars. I will definitely be back on my next vacation in Fort Lauderdale.

Very important addition to Wilton Manors and All #LGBT & #HumanRights history and progress. #LoveWins

We have no favorites here, are collection is made up of that which is donated, and all items are welcome. Trans, nonbinary, fluid, leather, disabled, this is your home, you and your archives, books, collections, are welcome. We are wheelchair accessible, we are working diligently to expand and reach parity in our library and archives, so all members of our community are included. If you have a question, or concern, come in and talk to us...consider joining us on a Donuts and Conversation Saturday, the opportunity to be part of our family is always open to anyone and everyone in our community.
