Tip-In to Harlem’s L’Artista Restaurant and celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the “Sip-In” that kicked-off the “Gay Rights” movement and spill some His-Tea-ry on how the “Sit-Ins” of the Civil Rights Movement inspired and empowered this and other liberation movements of the 60s and 70s!
Let’s celebrate all the joy of Spring and the Uptown community together!
Hosted by Harlem Pride, John Reddick and L’Artista Restaurant
We’re also proud to be participating in the national celebration in partnership with the NYC LGBTQ Historic Sites Project
A very special shout out and thanks to our gifted photographer Paul Morejon who restaged the 1966 “Sip-In” as a Harlem event at L’Artista
