SUMMARY:ACT UP at 40 NYC Calendar Launch
DESCRIPTION:RSVP TO THIS EVENT AND PRE-PURCHASE YOUR CALENDAR HERE \nPlease join ACT UP New York\, and ACT UP ACT UP Latina/o Caucus activists for the NYC launch of  ‘ACT UP at 40 Celebrating Resistance and Demanding Healthcare for All’ Calendar 2027 where it all started — inside the New York LGBT Center.  \nIn 2027\, ‘AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power’ (ACT UP) turns 40. To mark four decades of radical HIV/AIDS activism\, we are launching the ACT UP at 40: Celebrating Resistance and Demanding Healthcare for All — Calendar 2027\, bringing together previously unseen photographs and footage from ACT UP chapters around the world alongside daily reminders of protest. Watch the London launch here. \nWe will have two panel conversations with activists\, photographers and filmmakers from across the generations of the movement to ask: What can ACT UP teach us now?  \nCalendars will be on sale in the US for the first time!  \n* \n“Plague! We are in the middle of a fucking plague … what are we gonna do about it?” Larry Kramer demanded at the New York LGBT+ Center on March 10th 1987. Hundreds gathered that day to establish ACT UP — the AIDS Coalition to Unleash Power: united in anger and committed to non-violent direct action to end the AIDS crisis.  \nForty years on\, that urgency still reverberates. As cuts to HIV and AIDS funding put millions of lives at risk\, the answer remains the same: ACT UP until there is healthcare for all. \nThis calendar brings together ACT UP chapters — old\, new and newly reactivated — from around the world. It celebrates the extraordinary diversity of our creative activism and the power of our insurrectionary imaginations: from mass die-ins in Trafalgar square and pharmaceutical occupations to political funerals and ashes thrown over the White House gates. \nACT UP has saved countless lives and shown what people power can achieve. This calendar is an international kaleidoscope of that history\, creativity and resistance — and an invitation to pass the flame on.  \n* \nThe Bureau of General Services—Queer Division is Manhattan’s only queer bookstore\, located on the second floor of the LGBT Center. We’re open Tuesday-Sunday from 1-7pm and accessible by the 6th Ave 1 2 3 L trains and 8th Ave A C E trains. Our cafe\, The Bureau Cafe\, is open Tuesday-Sunday from 9am-7pm.
