🌈PRIDE MONTH IS HERE!❤️The art exhibition ‘Joy. Sorrow. Anger. Love. PRIDE: A Celebration of Toronto Pride’ opens today and we couldn’t be more excited.

This multimedia art exhibit focuses on the journey of Toronto Pride from 1970 to the present day.
Full of archival photographs, print media, memorabilia and writings by community leaders and the Toronto 2SLGBTQ+ community - this is the perfect way to connect to queer culture this month.

The exhibit will spotlight beloved and vital organizations like @buddiesto, @blm_to, @caseyhouseto, @2spiritstoronto, and more—interspersed with photographs, t-shirts, buttons, issues of @xtramagazine, protest signs, zines, and posters. This exhibit is an incredible way to learn about the history of Pride in our city.

Tap the link in our bio for more info & to read all about this week’s best bets. Hope to see you there!

Love,
She Does The City ❤️
