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.

Did you know that you can explore some of our collections online? While not a full digital database, we do have brief descriptions and a featured photo for each one of the collections that we house at FMA! Check it out at www.faulknermorgan.org/collections!

Do you have material or stories that help shed light on Kentucky's LGBTQ history? Consider donating them to FMA! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️💚 If you are interested, you can email us at [email protected] or visit faulknermorgan.org/donate-material to learn more! #LGBTQHistory
