Abstract: The
Center
for
Sex
and
Culture
was a San Francisco non-profit organization dedicated to providing judgment-free education, cultural events, and resources
related to topics across the sexual and gender spectrum; and to supporting research and dissemination of factual information
about sex, gender, identity, and health to help frame and inform issues of public policy and public health. The collection
(1925-2018) contains art, photography, posters, flyers, and ephemera from a wide variety of artists, performers, groups, and
institutions, largely from California.
Language of Material: Language of materials is in English, unless otherwise noted.
Biographical / Historical
The
Center
for
Sex
and
Culture
(CSC) was a San Francisco non-profit organization dedicated to providing judgment-free education, cultural events, and resources
related to topics across the sexual and gender spectrum. The CSC aimed to provide a community center for education, advocacy,
research, and support to the widest range of people. It was also engaged in several fiscal sponsorships with artists, educators,
and organizations.
Founders Dr. Carol Queen and Dr. Robert Morgan Lawrence, both of whom have degrees in Human Sexuality, first conceived of
the center in 1994, when a visit to Betty Dodson, "The Mother of Masturbation," led to the realization that there wasn't a
venue or community space in the Bay Area suitable for shows, workshops, and social gatherings centering around sexuality and
sex positivity. Drs. Queen and Lawrence founded the non-profit in 2000 and opened their physical space in 2004.
The CSC hosted workshops, lectures, play parties, art exhibitions, and many other events. It participated in well-known queer
events including San Francisco Pride and the Folsom Street Fair. In addition to the event space, the CSC housed a library
and archive dedicated to collecting research materials on the subjects of sex, gender, identity, public policy, and public
health. Materials were donated from across the community, creating what Dr. Queen believed to be the largest publicly-accessibly
sex library in the country.
Rising rents and the changing face of San Francisco forced the
Center
for
Sex
and
Culture
to close its physical location in January 2019.
