From a UW press release:
A touring photo-text display created by the award-winning Family Diversity Projects of Amherst, Mass., will be featured at the University of Wyoming ASUW Gallery Sept. 30-Oct. 24 with the opening reception at 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, Sept. 30.
An exhibition of “Love Makes a Family: Portraits of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender People and their Families,” shows the love, caring and connection that are basic to all these families. Spectrum and ASUW host the exhibition. Photographs by Gigi Kaeser are accompanied by text edited by Peggy Gillespie, who conducted in-depth interviews with family members who speak candidly about their lives, their relationships and the ways in which they cope with the realities of prejudice, bias and intolerance.
Since it began touring in 1996, the exhibition has been seen in more than 1,000 communities.
For more information go to www.familydiv.org, e-mail info@familydiv.org or call (413) 256-0502.
The Wyoming Arts Council believes that experiencing the arts should be accessible for all, including people with mental and/or physical disabilities, older adults, military/veterans, people living in institutions and those who lack access to the arts due to geographic isolation, cultural difference and economic hardship.
