Executive Director of the Stonewall National Museum Robert Kesten stated, "Since the Stonewall Museum's founding in 1973, we have prioritized protecting both the LGBTQ+ community's past while fighting for its future. Tristan Schukraft's life and career embodies these values – he has invested heavily in the community's future success through his creation of LGBTQ+ businesses, as well as preserved the community's artistic culture by ensuring our community's iconic spaces are protected."
