![]() Some bars are shown on several maps (for example, This Is It bar opened in 1968 and appears on all 5 maps), while other bars appear in only one decade map. Using data collected for this website, Don Schwamb compiled the information on bar names, addresses, and dates in business, and Tom Brittnacher of the American Geographic Society Library at UWM then created maps showing those locations for each decade.Įach decade (the 1960s, 1970s, etc.) is represented by a separate map, and each map shows the location of every bar known to have existed during that decade (by bar number). The Maps of LGBT Bars and Clubs in Milwaukee were first compiled for the exhibit titled "Stonewall 40" at PrideFest 2009 to document the bars known to have existed in the city since the mid 1960s. Milwaukee has been fortunate to have a diverse collection of Gay and Lesbian bars in the city both before and since Stonewall.
