Do You Love Local LGBTQ History? Then Take the Queer Underground Tour!

August 25, 2022• byMichael Strangeways

You still have a few weeks left to take the  Beneath the Streets Queer History Tour. It takes place every other Friday in Pioneer Square and it’s a fun way to learn about the early beginnings of Seattle’s LGBTQ community in the “Olden Days”. They’re still doing tours through September 30, 2022!

A guided exploration with Beneath the Streets into the history of pioneer Square’s underground night life and how Seattle became a queer cultural mecca.

Pioneer Square is the umbilical center of Queer history from Seattle’s first Sodomy trial in 1893 to the first Gay Pride Picnic, held in Occidental Park in 1974. This tour explores the creation of Seattle’s gay community from it’s early underground roots to contemporary emancipation and celebration.

Adults only (18 and over). $27 + tax

Dates: Every Other Friday at 7PM
Location: Beneath the Streets (102 Cherry Street, Seattle, WA 98104)
Tickets: https://www.beneath-the-street…

About the Author: Michael Strangeways

As the Editorial Director/Co-Owner, Michael Strangeways writes, edits and does about a million other jobs for Seattle Gay Scene, Puget Sound's most visited LGBTQ news, arts and entertainment website now celebrating its 14th year as a media outlet. A semi-proud Midwesterner by birth, he's lived in Seattle since 2000. He's also a film producer who would like you to check out the Jinkx Monsoon documentary, "Drag Becomes Him" now available on Amazon.com. In his spare time, he gets slightly obsessive about his love for old movies, challenging theater, "otters", vodka, chocolate, "I,Claudius", Lizzie Borden, real books made out of paper, disaster films, show tunes, Weimar era Germany, flea markets, pop surrealistic art, the sex lives of Hollywood actors both living and dead, kitties, chicken fried steak, haute couture and David Bowie. But, not necessarily in that order.
