SUMMARY:Show Your Colors: LGBTQ  Pride Flag Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a First Friday exhibit reception on June 3rd from 
 6:00-8:00pm.\n\nDuring the month of June\, in honor of Pride Month and the 
 1969 Stonewall Uprising\, the City of Phoenix LGBTQ Employee Alliance has 
 partnered with Burton Barr Central Library to showcase a LGBTQ  Pride Flag 
 exhibit featuring 22 pride flags that embody just some of the many aspects 
 of the LGBTQ  community. The Rainbow Pride Flag\, some might say\, is the 
 most iconic symbol of Pride\, but more than 20 LGBTQ  flags represent 
 different sexualities and gender identities within the broader queer 
 community and their allies.\n\nSo\, why are there so many flags? Monica 
 Helms\, the creator of the Transgender Pride Flag and Navy veteran\, says 
 the following:\n“I say the rainbow flag is like the American flag: 
 everybody’s underneath that. But each group\, like each state\, has their 
 own individual flag.” — Monica Helms\n\nThis exhibition features twenty 
 3’x5’ flags and two 5’x8’ flags. Each flag has its own story of who 
 it represents and the significance of each color or symbol. These flags 
 also give visibility to groups within the LGBTQ  community that 
 historically have not been represented in the mainstream gay rights 
 movement.\n\nThe LGBTQ  Pride Flag Exhibit is an opportunity for 
 individuals to understand the differences among the diverse members of the 
 LGBTQ  community\, and to provide an opportunity to challenge assumptions\, 
 prejudices\, and stereotypes relating to the LGBTQ  community. \n\nThe Show 
 Your Colors: An LGBTQ  Pride Flag Exhibit will be on display in the 
 @Central Gallery\, Burton Barr Central Library from May 23 to July 1\, 
 2022.\n
