The mission of the Bay Area Lesbian Archives is to preserve the lesbian history of the Greater San Francisco Bay Area and make it accessible to the public.

​

Our collections emphasize the lives and activism of courageous everyday lesbians who found ways to live open and authentic lives. These brave pioneers envisioned and created a counterculture, the magnitude of which is unprecedented in women’s history. These stories are a vital addition to the histories of freedom and social justice movements worldwide.
