Out & About Tours: Bringing LGBT History to the Streets of LA
Out & About Tours is the first and only gay bus tour that provides an educational yet always entertaining look at LGBT history in and around Los Angeles. The tour is open to members of any and all communities 21 years of age and older; be it a straight local or gay tourist, everyone will get something special and memorable from Out & About Tours. With more than 100 points of interest, the tour mixes campy entertainment with heart-breaking personal stories of struggle and failure.
As the Out & About vehicle cruises down the famous Los Angeles boulevards and on-lookers see a double-decker bus with passengers who are cheering and stomping their feet, they can then take a moment to appreciate how in a city that still requires heterosexuality in its leading men and in a state where bigotry is sometimes legislated - there is an opportunity to celebrate not only who they are but those whose struggles of yesterday continue to shape lives today.
The tour runs every Saturday and Sunday and alternating Fridays. It departs from ONE Archives Gallery & Museum in West Hollywood at 1 p.m. and ends at approximately 4 p.m. The $75 ticket includes a full day of fun and education as well as drinks and food available gratis at key stops.
