In 1989, a unique installation of public art took place at the Center. Well-known and emerging artists were invited to create pieces celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Stonewall Riots for what was called The Center Show. This year, as the Center celebrates it’s 25th anniversary, former Center board president David Nimmons and artist Gary Speziale recall the days when the exhibition was installed and take a tour of the building to find some the pieces that can still be found on walls, stairways and other secret hiding places. This video excerpt is from Out at the Center, a TV show of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Community Center of New York City. To see more episodes go to gaycenter.org/out. The show is made possible thanks to members of the Center and viewers like you. To find out more, join or donate go to www.gaycenter.org/support
