Join a Virtual 'Sip-In' at NYC's Historic Julius' Bar
Join the NYC LGBT Historic Sites Project and special guests on Tuesday, April 21, 2020, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. (EST), for a virtual celebration of the 1966 Mattachine Society "Sip-In" at Julius' Bar. Fix a cocktail and retrace the steps of four Mattachine Society members whose defiant actions made history.
Settle in with a set from DJ Yestergay (Kyle Supley) and words of welcome from Project co-director Ken Lustbader. Then, Project co-director and architectural historian Andrew Scott Dolkart will lead a virtually immersive Zoom tour of the four bars visited on April 21, 1966, by activists Dick Leitsch, Craig Rodwell, John Timmons and, at Julius', Randy Wicker. Following the tour, stay for Q&A, community and more music.
Registration is free but participants must register for Zoom access.
