Snapshots of Pride
An upcoming exhibit at New Museum Los Gatos will explore historical events in the South Bay LGBTQ+ community from the 1970s to 1980s through the lens of photojournalist Ted Sahl.

His recording of this event sparked a decades-long interest and dedication to chronicling the LGBTQ+ politics, people and movements in the South Bay.
