YES! We are open for you - virtually

We know many in our LGBTQ+ communities have been hit hard by the coronavirus pandemic, and the staff at the William Way LGBT Community Center are here to serve you. We are continuing to provide social groups, educational programming, counseling and support services, art exhibits, and cultural experiences—all virtually. We are following the lead of the local libraries and schools to ensure the safety of both staff and guests by providing robust virtual services and other services by appointment. 

  • Have questions about local LGBTQ+ events or need referrals to LGBTQ+ affirming service providers? Call (215-732-2220) or email (info@waygay.org) our Front Desk during Admin Hours - Monday through Friday from 11am to 5pm.

  • Have you been wondering if the group you attended at the Center is holding virtual meetings? You can find information on our Events Calendar or call the Front Desk during Admin Hours - Monday through Friday from 11am to 5pm. New participants are also welcome!
