The Rainbow Honor Walk celebrates the lives, legacies, and courage of LGBTQ+ trailblazers who have shaped our history, culture, and community. We are raising funds to fabricate and install 22 new bronze plaques honoring these remarkable individuals along San Francisco’s iconic Market Street.
These plaques commemorate pioneers in arts, activism, politics, literature, and culture, ensuring their stories are visible, remembered, and celebrated by generations to come. From writers and performers to activists and visionaries, each plaque tells a story of resilience, creativity, and the fight for equality.
Your donation will help cover the costs of:
• Casting durable bronze plaques by skilled artisans
• Professional installation in the sidewalk for public viewing
• Ongoing maintenance and preservation
Every contribution brings us closer to honoring these 22 incredible figures, inspiring the LGBTQ+ community and the wider public with their courage and achievements.
Plaques to be installed for:
Peter Adair, Gloria Anzaldúa, Willem Arondéus, Tallulah Bankhead, Bernice Bing, Bobbi Campbell, Esther Eng, Sally Gearhart, Lorraine Hansberry, Magnus Hirschfeld, Billie Holiday, Carlos Jáuregui, Larry Kramer, Anne Lister, Xulhaz Mannan, Pauli Murray, Charley Parkhurst, Marlon Riggs, Oliver Sacks, Jon R. Sims, Sophie Xeon, Edith Windsor
Join us in making their legacies permanent on the streets of San Francisco.
Donate today to keep history visible.
