In the ''[[Quantum Leap (1989 TV series)|Quantum Leap]]'' comic book titled ''Up Against a Stonewall'' (1992), the Mattachine Society and the [[Daughters of Bilitis]] are mentioned as two groups campaigning for LGBT rights prior to the [[Stonewall riots]].

The 1995 film ''[[Stonewall (1995 film)|Stonewall]]'' included members of the Mattachine Society of New York among its characters. Mattachine members are seen leafleting, attending meetings and participating in the [[Annual Reminder]] picket in Philadelphia. However, the film sets the Reminder earlier in the summer than it really was, predating the June 28 [[Stonewall riots]].

In 2002 Mattachine Midwest was inducted into the [[Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.glhalloffame.org/index.pl?page%3Dinductees%26todo%3Dyear |title=Chicago Gay and Lesbian Hall of Fame |access-date=2016-01-10 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151017032241/http://www.glhalloffame.org/index.pl?page=inductees&todo=year |archive-date=2015-10-17 }}</ref>

In 2009 the Mattachine Society and its founders became the subjects of the play ''[[The Temperamentals]]'' by [[Jon Marans]]. After workshop performances in 2009, the play opened [[Off-Broadway]] at [[New World Stages]] in early 2010.<ref>{{cite web
