LGBT Center On 4th

The Brad Brafford LGBTQ Center on 4th serves as the social hub for Orange County's LGBTQ community, located at 305 E. 4th Street in downtown Santa Ana, California. Operated by LGBTQ Center Orange County, the Center on 4th is housed in a dedicated space that brings together art, culture, and community through exhibits, courses, workshops, and events. The venue offers three rentable areas: the Max A. Schneider Gallery, a light-filled indoor gallery with hardwood floors and rotating artwork on its walls; the Jeff Brummett and Marc Lafont Patio, an outdoor space strung with festoon lighting; and small meeting rooms suited for intimate gatherings and presentations. Spaces accommodate events ranging from conferences and cocktail mixers to ceremonies and receptions, with a shared kitchen available for catering use. A day-of coordinator is included with venue rentals, and the Center on 4th welcomes community events, celebrations, and private gatherings year-round.
