The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender Community Center
The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Community Center (commonly referred to as "The Center"), one of the best LGBTQ+ spots to visit right now in NYC, has served the queer community in NYC as a safe haven and a central location for resources ever since they first opened their doors in 1983. This space aims to better the lives of everyone who enters by providing assistance with basic daily tasks like insurance enrollment or job applications, as well as with locating LGBTQIA+ -friendly small businesses, events, and hotels while traveling and connecting visitors with recovery, wellness, family, and youth organizations (in addition to the multitude of resources available off-site and online).
Open seven days a week from 10 am to 10 pm, there is always a jam-packed events calendar (full list here) to browse. These include fundraisers, musical performances, comedy shows, reading groups, bike races, and motivational/life talks.
