Join us to celebrate Harvey Milk Day on Friday, May 22, 2026 6pm to celebrate his legacy of coalition building with organizers from communities of people of color, workers, radical feminists, and all LGBTQ people.

This is organized by  the Castro Community Benefit District,  the Friends of Harvey Milk Plaza, Castro LGBTQ Cultural District, & the Castro Merchants Association. We start with a gathering outside of Queer Arts Featured (575 Castro St., previously Harvey Milk’s camera shop). There will be music & speakers., then we’ll have a procession to Jane Warner Plaza (Castro and Market).
