Record Origin:
LASD was invited by Ms. Wickstead, a teacher at High Tech, to participate in this multi-component project with her middle grade students about local LGBTQ history. It was a perfect outreach/K-12 engagement opportunity that consisted of a virtual presentation about LAGADU for the 7th graders, an onsite visit to LASD to learn about the exhibit, and the creation of a stone designed by the students to commemorate LAGADU and its placement in a particular location in San Diego that is relevant to LAGADU, which is the Lyceum Theatre.
