Description
Acclaimed author/historian Stuart Timmons was in the process of writing his West Hollywood LGBTQ History Tour, the final in a trio of walking tours, when he suffered a debilitating stroke in 2008. The tour remained incomplete until the City of West Hollywood’s Arts Division funded its completion to help finish his research, bringing it to a rousing completion as both a self-guided walking tour and a special in-person event with performance artists as tour guides. In 2021, through a special grant, the tour was recorded as a collection of short films.
