To celebrate Black History Month, we wanted to look back at the journey of our traveling exhibition "Here, Black, Femme, & Queer!" This exhibit intentionally focuses on joy and shines a light on the lives and legacies of Black, femme, & queer people from right here in Kentucky.
Visit the museum and learn more at � Info-A-Go-Go 2025: Building a stronger LGBTQ+ community together. � Join us on Saturday, February 1st, from 11am - 3pm, at the Palm Springs Pavilion for a day of connection, empowerment, and collective action.
