Mission, Vision, Values
MISSION
Stonewall National Museum, Archives, & Library is a safe, welcoming place that inspires and promotes understanding through collecting, preserving, and sharing the proud culture of LGBTQIA+ people of all stories, and their significant role in American society.
VISION statement
A future where every LGBTQIA+ story is preserved, celebrated, and woven into the fabric of American history—empowering communities, educating generations, and inspiring a more inclusive tomorrow.
CORE VALUES
🔹
Legacy & Preservation
We safeguard the stories, artifacts, and cultural contributions of LGBTQIA+ communities to ensure they are remembered, respected, and accessible for generations to come.
🔹
Inclusivity & Representation
We embrace the full spectrum of LGBTQIA+ identities and experiences, centering voices that have been historically marginalized and celebrating the richness of intersectional narratives.
🔹
Education & Empowerment
We foster learning and dialogue through exhibitions, programs, and resources that deepen understanding, challenge bias, and empower individuals to engage with history and advocacy.
🔹
Community & Belonging
We cultivate a space of safety, welcome, and connection—where people of all backgrounds can gather, reflect, and find resonance in shared stories and collective memory.
🔹
Transparency & Trust
We operate with integrity and openness, building trust through ethical stewardship, clear communication, and a commitment to honoring the communities we serve.
