GAY HOLOCAUST EXHIBIT COMING TO OKC?
Back in November, GayOKC.com featured headlines about the exhibit
"Nazi Persecution of Homosexuals, 1933-1945" now on display at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC. That exhibit runs through March and will go on tour starting in May. When I learned the exhibit was going on tour I wrote to the USHMM asking for information on bringing the exhibit to Oklahoma City. A few days later, I received an email from Lauren Kaminsky, Traveling Exhibitions Director at the Museum with that information. Since then I have spoken with the Oklahoma Gay and Lesbian Political Caucus and the Cimarron Alliance Foundation about getting involved in an effort to bring this exhibit to OKC. If anything develops, I will post it on GayOKC.com.

CIMARRON ALLIANCE GROUP AT INAUGURAL BALL
Well, how's this for a milestone in the history of OKC's GLBT Community? The Cimarron Alliance Group was invited to Gov Henry's Inaugural Ball Monday evening, and, as you can see, they accepted the invitation. Yes, that's Ed Kromer and Joe Quigley - both Cimarron Alliance Group board members - dancing AT the ball. The music was live, of course, and the band was backing up a singer who turned out to be none another than Anita Bryant. Yes, THAT Anita Bryant! I kid you not!!!!!!!! Thanks to Joe Quigley for the pics - I only wish I had time to process and upload all of them tonight. Several CAG board members attended the ball. Hopefully they'll be posted on the
Cimarron Alliance Group website.

PEGGY JOHNSON AT COA - CORRECTION!
Ms Johnson will be singing this Friday, the 17th, NOT Saturday, the 18th at the Church of the Open Arms, 3131 N Pennsylvania, starting at 8PM.

OGLPC WEBSITE GETS NEW ADDRESS
With the new year of 2003, OGLPC (Oklahoma Gay & Lesbian Political Caucus) wishes to announce our second generation web page at http://www.oglpc.org.
Having our own domain name and a new internet host will allow OGLPC to respond to its members needs and questions with the latest accurate information concerning the gay/lesbian political scene in Oklahoma and nationally. 
New and re-newing members will be able to make their contributions on-line, to send e-mails with questions and comments, and to find links connecting them with many local, state, and national government offices, as well as gay/lesbian civil rights organizations across the country.
OGLPC's new webmaster, Philippe Beaudette, brings talent, flair, and commitment to gay/lesbian rights activism as vice-president/president-elect of Church of  the Open Arms, a United Churches of Christ (UCC) congregation in Oklahoma City.
OGLPC wishes to thank Rob Abiera, our former webmaster, for his pioneering work in establishing the first release of our website.  Mr. Abiera found it necessary to devote his entire attention to his own website, GayOKC.com, and he remains a loyal member of OGLPC.
Please take a moment to change your bookmarks and explore OGLPC's new website at
http://www.oglpc.org and get acquainted with the new features made possible through Eclipse Hosting.
