This week marks 40 years since the election of civil rights activist Harvey Milk, California’s first openly gay elected official. And San Francisco community leaders have big plans to commemorate the major milestone, including a large-scale, peaceful and positive public gathering set to take place on Wednesday, November 8 at the intersection of Castro & Market streets. As well as a design contest in honor of Harvey Milk, a leader who inspires people to carry forth a message of inclusivity and equality to this day.
Join the Friends of Harvey Milk Plaza and nonprofit arts collaborative Illuminate (the same team behind The Bay Lights and the lighting for the Conservatory of Flowers for the Summer of Love). At 6 pm on November 8th, San Franciscans will gather at Castro & Market Street “to celebrate Harvey Milk’s vision of equality and to give everyone hope for moving forward towards peace and justice.”
