A kick-off concert at Grace Cathedral, “Ground Zero” for LBGT social justice in San Francisco, for SFGMC’s 40th season and its soul-affirming, life-changing journey to five Southern states. The tour is inspired by the anniversary of the gay civil rights bill signed by Mayor George Moscone with a lavender pen given to him by Harvey Milk.
This tour will go to: Jackson, Mississippi; Birmingham, Alabama; Knoxville, Tennessee; Greenville, South Carolina; and Charlotte, North Carolina. The Lavender Pen Tour will share SFGMC’s mission of community, activism and compassion throughout the South. Joining the Chorus will be the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir.
