Join the City of West Hollywood for a free community screening of the documentary AIDS Diva: The Legend of Connie Norman on Saturday, September 13, 2025.
This special event is part of the city’s 40th Anniversary Cultural History Grant program, which celebrates 40 years of West Hollywood’s cityhood.
The award-winning film, released in 2021, chronicles the life of Connie Norman, a pioneering transgender and AIDS activist. A masterful spokesperson for ACT UP/LA in the late ’80s and early ’90s, Norman was a powerful voice for the LGBTQ+ community.
The screening will take place at the Los Angeles LGBT Center’s Renberg Theater at the Village at Ed Gould Plaza (1125 N. McCadden Place, Los Angeles, CA 90038). A reception will begin at 6 p.m., followed by the film at 7 p.m.
Immediately following the screening, director Dante Alencastre, Peter Cashman, Torie Osborn, Robin Podolsky, and other activist colleagues of Connie Norman will join a panel discussion. The panel will be moderated by transgender activist/artist Jazzmun Crayton.
While the event is free, advance registration is requested. To reserve your spot, please visit https://bit.ly/AIDSDiva-09-13-25.
