Pride Month
Happy Pride month, one and all! 🏳️🌈
This Pride Progress flag is made with a selection of works from our collection in celebration of LGBTQ+ life here in Oxfordshire and around the world.
Pride month serves to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, and celebrates and highlight the history and achievements of LGBTQ+ communities worldwide. It falls in June to commemorate the Stonewall riots, which occurred in the United States in 1969.
If you want to learn more about the LGBTQ+ stories represented in our collections, you can find the 'Out in Oxford' Trail, as well as a number of articles and stories on the 'stories' section of our website. Find out more via the link in our bio.
