Expression is an integral part of what we're as humans. But for people who have been marginalized in their ability to express individuality has too often come with a heavy price. Yet, expression that is imaginative is the base of how we process our emotions and struggle for equality for all, share our personal as well as collective emotions, develop empathy , and gain a greater awareness of those with different perspectives to our own.

We will be hosting programming all through the month

To celebrate Pride Month, we welcome to you to allow your imagination to flow free. We want to see you in all your glory. We'd like to celebrate the achievements you've made this year, and in the coming year through your imagination! What happens when we take time to think about the power of your creativity and are then given the space to acknowledge your creativity?

We invite you to start with the song by Justin Michael Williams. The lyrics by the musician read: "No matter how much we consider, think to, progress, and succeed. The person within each of us who wants to believe that they are enough. This doesn't just concern how they "do," but for the person they truly are. "I am enough" will be dedicated to the one inside you. An anthem for each of us to remind ourselves that we're worthy regardless of how much we've gone through."
