Special Programs
Julio of Jackson Heights
Julio of Jackson Heights tells the tale of how the LGBT population of
Jackson Heights came together and formed a real community in
response to the 1990 gay bashing murder of Julio Rivera in the P.S.
69 schoolyard. It is the story behind our Queens Pride Parade, behind
over 20 years of organizing, activism and visibility.
Documentary filmmaker, Richard Shpuntoff, is currently in
post-production and is looking to completing the film before the end of
the year.
