Tennessee Williams Museum

Tennessee Williams didn’t just write gay subtext—he invented it, then slapped it on a Broadway stage in a silk robe with a Southern accent. At the Tennessee Williams Museum, you’ll find first editions, personal photos, rare articles, and enough queer literary history to make your inner theater kid weep. Williams lived in Key West for over 30 years, writing some of his most iconic (and scandalous) work here. Come for the gay drama, stay for the legacy of the man who made desire poetic, tragic, and just a little bit sweaty.
