The Leslie/Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art (LLM) houses a permanent collection of 3500+ works ranging from painting and drawing to photography, sculpture and prints. The core group of works were collected by the founders, J. Frederic Lohman, ASID, and Charles W. Leslie. Mr. Leslie states that LLM's mission is "to locate, rescue, and preserve works of gay art that are endangered because of societal sexual prejudice" — a mission he places "in the category of what I did for love" for "the art that dare not speak its name." Fritz Lohman once said, "I was born to get this work out of the closet and onto the walls."
