SAN FRANCISCO – Harvey Milk's kitchen table finally has found its way home to the center of the Castro District.
The gold-painted table that belonged to the city's first openly gay supervisor is part of an inaugural exhibit at the GLBT History Museum, the first of its kind in the nation.
A project of the GLBT (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual Transgender) Historical Society, the recently opened museum is bringing attention to a neighborhood with a rich legacy but, until now, no tangible center.
"This is a unique cultural resource," said museum executive director Paul Boneberg, head of the historical society.
The society has amassed artifacts to create what some call "the queer Smithsonian."

Harvey Milk's kitchen table finally has found its way home to the center of the Castro District. Did they wipe off the bloody feces stains? Or did they leave them there - for authenticity?

Paul Boneberg-——the jokes just write themselves!!
To: 43north
One has to ask what relevance a kitchen table has to a museum lionizing a sodomy advocate. So the question is valid.

” gay museum opens in S.F.’s Castro District “
Redundant.
