John J. Wilcox, Jr. Archives

The Archives is currently closed to researchers and visitors so that we may prepare our collections for a move to a new location. We expect to be closed through the end of the calendar year. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

We will be open for the Black LGBTQ+ Collections Open House on Wednesday, October 8, from 6-8pm.

Please email archives@waygay.org with any questions or to discuss potential donations.

The John J. Wilcox, Jr. Archives is Philadelphia's most extensive collection of personal papers, organizational records, periodicals, audiovisual material and ephemera documenting the rich history of our LGBTQ community. For more information about the Archives or to schedule a visit, please email archives@waygay.org.
