About this place Milwaukee LGBT Community Center

The Milwaukee LGBT Community Center is the city's main LGBTQ+ nonprofit. In May 2026 it moved from 315 W Court St back to Walker's Point, where it first opened in 1998, and now sits at 161 S 1st St, Suite 100, a few blocks from the 2nd Street bars. Its calendar is busy: support groups (TGNC, bi+, disability, parents of trans kids), older-adult drop-ins as a SAGE partner, youth clubhouse hours, game and quiet nights, potlucks and writing workshops. Most things are scheduled, so check mkelgbt.org before you walk in.

The Milwaukee LGBT Community Center is a lifeline for the LGBTQIA2S+ community in southeastern Wisconsin. It is a very inclusive and supportive space for trans, disabled, bipoc, and low-income queers. There's always some kind of support group, social event, or other resource available to help you survive and thrive.

This place is a very toxic place for LGBT people, DON'T go there for any resources. They are just looking for your money and aren't interested in actually helping you.
