The Legacy Project’s Searchable LGBTQ History
A Chicago-centered public history project documenting LGBTQ lives and contributions through the Legacy Walk, Legacy Wall, searchable records, education tools, and guided tours.
Field notes
The project combines a physical Chicago installation with an online discovery layer: visitors can browse nominees, search references, view plaque materials, and access video collections. Its education section is organized for distinct audiences, including parents, teachers, and LGBTQ youth, and points to lesson plans connected to Illinois’s inclusive-curriculum requirements. The homepage also describes a traveling installation and national tour, extending the archive beyond the Legacy Walk itself.
