Moving to Ybor City
The Florida Museum of Photographic Arts is excited to announce that the museum will move to a new location on 7th Avenue in historic Ybor City! The new museum will feature over 3,000 square feet of exhibition space, including a separate Community Gallery. As usual, we will continue in FMoPA’s tradition of exhibiting important photographic works. FMoPA will be closed during the move beginning on January 19, 2023, until the new space is fully renovated.

Gay History
From John Alan Cooke….. In the 70’s, When the all the Bars, which included Renee’s, The Old Plantation, Margie’s, the Kiki, The El Goya in Ybor City and lots of others closed at 2am and Donna was singing “Last Dance” at the end of the night, , Denny’s on Kennedy Blvd in Tampa, which was open 24 hours was the next stop!
– 110 Seats ! And overflowing completely full and a line out the door and down the block!
The Party Continued on and everyone was In their Glory and Happy…
I miss that time so very much…. Denny’s being a “Family Restaurant” couldn’t stand for all that Joy and Happiness for the Gay & Lesbian Community, so they sold it…. They could not deter Our community and we kept coming back so they torn it all down and made a Parking Lot…. It was truly the End of an Era, we will never see again. https://www.facebook.com/groups/gaybarchives
