The NYC Trans Archives (NYCTA) preserves transgender culture in the New York City region and beyond. Founded in 2023, NYCTA evolved out of a dual need for independent and community-led trans archives. When we open our physical space in Brooklyn, NYCTA will be the first and only brick-and-mortar transgender archive in the Eastern United States.
We are currently fundraising to open a physical location in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn, Lenapehoking in 2026, with archival storage facilities located in New Jersey. We are also actively seeking material donations of trans-related ephemera. See our acquisitions page for more information, or feel free to contact us for more details!
