Lily Tomlin, Kathy Griffin & More Help Open New Los Angeles LGBTQ Facility!

Kathy Griffin and Lily Tomlin are all smiles while attending the grand opening of the Los Angeles LGBT Center’s Anita May Rosenstein Campus on Sunday (April 7) in Los Angeles.

The two ladies were joined at the event by Wilson Cruz, Frankie Grande, Lesley-Ann Brandt, Johnny Sibilly, Antonio Marziale, VINCINT, Adam Shankman, Betty Who, August Getty, Miles Jai and Mayor of Los Angeles, Eric Garcetti.

“It’s just amazing how this place thrives and grows year after year,” Lily expressed at the ribbon cutting celebration in Hollywood (via NBC). “This is a welcoming place where kids are welcomed. They’re made to feel good about themselves. They’re given the tools and the support to pull themselves out and grow. It’s a rich rich community to be a part of.”

The Anita May Rosenstein campus is said to be the world’s first intergenerational LGBTQ facility, serving both LGBTQ seniors and youth. The Campus includes drop-in centers for both youth and seniors as well as 100 beds for homeless youth. The Ariadne Getty Foundation Youth Academy provides educational services. Phase two of the project, set to be completed in a few months, will include 99 apartments for seniors.
