During this time of uncertainty, FMA is continuing our work of sharing Kentucky’s long and rich LGBTQ history—the struggles and the joy!

We are thrilled to welcome Natalie Warren to the Faulkner Morgan Archive team as our Spring 2025 Collections Intern! To help you get to know Natalie a little better, we sat down for a fun and insightful Q&A session.

We are so excited and grateful to have been interviewed for a video created by Encyclopædia Britannica!!! We hope this shows people the hope that can come from looking to the magical history of our LGBTQ community.

In November, we turn our thoughts towards gratitude, and at FMA that's really easy to do!

October is jammed pack with exciting events, talks, workshops, and fundraisers to celebrate LGBTQ History Month!

You'll see FMA everywhere this fall! And while we are still a couple of months away from LGBTQ History Month, we have already started creating exciting events, programs, and exhibitions.

We have some exciting programming planned, so stay tuned and join us as we celebrate pride all summer long!

2024 has already been such an exciting--and busy--year for us at FMA! As we continue celebrating Henry Faulkner's 100th Birthday, we have several big announcements, including the premier of the first feature-length film on Henry!

One of Henry Faulkner’s most famous quips was “save the seeds, children. Save the seeds.” Henry knew that a small investment now can have an immense impact on the future.

In our work of telling Kentucky’s LGBTQ history, it is important to recognize the immense impact of the Black, queer community.

The Faulkner Morgan Archive is excited to unveil these newly acquired, never-before-seen photographs of queer legend Marsha P. Johnson from the estate of renowned Kentucky-born photographer Leee Black Childers.

This pair of underwear, signed by Andy Warhol, has become a signature artifact of the Faulkner Morgan Archive.

On June 17th, 2021 the sun shined bright and strong. After a year of confinement, and months of the vaccination process, everyone was ready to get out.  There was something else coming out that day, or rather, reemerging: The Country.

Faulkner Morgan Archive, Inc., announces a substantial gift from The Forbes Collections.

One of our favorite new artifacts! This ticket to see Divine perform at Lexington's Cafe LMNOP in 1986 was given to us by its original owner during Trippin' Thru The Dew, our October fundraiser.

The Kentucky Historical Society was on hand for June’s marker dedication, and they made this great video of the event!
