The Museum is the culmination of a Tucson effort started in the Summer Of 1967 by a group of pre-teen and teen school boys from a local neighborhood still blessed with its dirt streets as they experienced growing up in the often anything goes atmosphere of Free Sex in the 1960's and early 1970's (see article) within their own peer group while at the same time being surrounded by the often very ultra conservative world of most of their parents, relatives, teachers, other adults, along with the events they encountered or were hearing about every day (see video) (see video).

To best enjoy your visit through the Virtual Museum's Experience you should already have or simply will need to download the latest free Adobe Reader and its accompanying Adobe Flash Player.

The Virtual Museum WILL FULLY IMMERSE YOU into the Respective Time Period's Of LGBTQ History Below, and consists of thousands of text, photographic images, home movies, videos, audio and or visual recordings, publications, manuscripts, memorabilia, government documents and recordings, reports, and other exhibits from their respective time periods. In some cases an exhibit may be as closely associated with those time periods-subjects, or explaining those time periods-subjects until other exhibits can be processed or otherwise become available to replace or be included with them.
