Center on Halsted

Center on Halsted, the Midwest’s largest comprehensive center serving the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community of Chicago, offers support networks and programs that meet the cultural, emotional, spiritual, social, educational, and recreational needs of LGBT youth, adults, seniors, and families. The Center hosts a variety of cultural events including concerts, theater performances and lecture series, as well as sports and recreation programs, some of which do not require pre-registration.

Located blocks from Chicago’s historic Wrigley Field in the heart of the Lakeview neighborhood or Boystown, the three-story, 65,000-square-foot, green Center on Halsted includes a Whole Foods Market and cafe, conference and office space, a theater, a computer technology center, a multipurpose gymnasium and a rooftop garden.

It is also home to 10 community partners, smaller nonprofit organizations that either receive operational support from or have office space within the Center. For more information, visit www.centeronhalsted.org.
