For over three decades, Alan Beck, the creator of Fun Maps, has been at the forefront of LGBTQ+ travel. Recently, amidst political turmoil, Alan temporarily rebranded to GAY TRAVEL MAPS in protest of Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” law. Now, he is returning with FUN Maps to its roots this month. He will kickstart the new journey with NYC And Fort Lauderdale in focus. Alan’s advocacy for LGBTQ+ rights can be witnessed through his digital guides that reach 36 destinations. From printed maps to mobile-friendly apps, Fun Maps/Guides are available in bars, hotels, and welcome centers, making LGBTQ+ travel more accessible and inclusive. We are glad to have Alan Beck today as anchor on Queer News tonight.
