About the Finger Lakes The Finger Lakes region is comprised of 11 lakes spread across central New York, encompassing 9,000- plus square miles of outdoor adventures and bucolic scenery along with history, some of the best in food and beverage and urban hotspots in the region’s “gateways” of Rochester and Syracuse. Visitors will enjoy an abundance of Thoreau-esque lakeside retreats, a myriad of trails (from sweet treat and cheese trails to beer and antique trails), more than 130 world-class vineyards, breweries, distilleries and cideries, farm-to- table culinary delights, hands-on educational museums, and internationally acclaimed annual festivals. A four-hour drive or 45-minute flight from northeastern hubs, the Finger Lakes proves to be an easily accessible destination for those seeking a quick weekend’s getaway. Current Story Angles to Consider Women’s Empowerment Tourism: In time for the upcoming 100th anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment, visitors can see where the fight for equal rights began. Not only did pioneering women like Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Harriet Tubman call the Finger Lakes region home, but the Women’s Rights Convention was held in Seneca Falls in 1848.

THEMES The chapters in this section take themes as their starting points. They explore different aspects of LGBTQ history and heritage, tying them to specific places across the country. They include examinations of LGBTQ community, civil rights, the law, health, art and artists, commerce, the military, sports and leisure, and sex, love, and relationships. LGBTQ CIVIL RIGHTS IN AMERICA18 Megan E. Springate [T]he evolution of our present understanding of civil rights is deeply tied to our collective story and represents the highest aspirations and deepest tragedies that followed the adoption of our national charter. It is wholly within the mission of the National Park Service to locate, evaluate, recognize, preserve, and interpret nationally significant sites associated with the many threads of the civil rights story.1 The stories of LGBTQ America are, in large part, stories of civil rights— rights denied, fought for, fought against, won, lost, won again, and threatened.

  • 2016 Annual Report
    2016 Annual Report Photo The Gay Alliance of the Genesee Valley is a Champion for LGBTQ Life and Culture. We envision a future where all members of the greater Rochester LGBTQ communities, at all stages of their lives, are free to be fully participating citizens, celebrating their lives in which they are safe, stable and fully respected. Letter from the Executive Director 2016 will go down as a year of great change for the Gay Alliance. Considering the changes that the Alliance has seen in its 44 years, 2016 brought new powerful and exciting changes. At the top of that long list of changes is our move into a new home in the Neighborhood of the Arts. The Rochester LGBTQ Resource Center is much more than just new offices, it is a home for members of our communities as well as our friends and allies. The LGBTQ Resource Center provides The James Moran Community Room; David Bohnett Cyber Center; a library of over 10,000 books, magazines and DVD’s; Gallery Q and our Education Center which hosts trainings, movies, youth and senior activities, classes and space for community gatherings. The new space brought the Alliance a 1400% increase in visitors over the previous year! In January and February 2016, the Library checked out more items than had been checked out in all of 2014 & 2015 combined! While the Resource Center and our community programs were busy, the LGBTQ Academy, our Education Program, also saw extraordinary growth. In 2016 our staff and volunteer educators presented 276 sessions, in 17 states, reaching over 10,000 participants! College campuses, medical centers, corporations, K-12 schools and a wide variety of social service organizations have become more welcoming to members of the LGBTQ communities because of the Gay Alliance.
