Celebrate Pride Month at EPL
June is Pride Month, and we're proud to celebrate the rich diversity and resilience of the LGBTQIA+ community. All month long, your public library is hosting inclusive events, showcasing powerful stories, and highlighting voices that inspire change and connection.
Whether you're looking for books that reflect your experience, programs that spark conversation, or a welcoming space to be yourself, the library is here for you. Join us in honoring love, identity, and community—this month and every month.
Pride Month Art Exhibits
"Correspondence Invited" - Collages by James Hosking
Set between 1966 to 1981, the collages in this exhibit are inspired by found LGBTQ+ personal ads and their authors. The works explore how the times they lived in, and the media they consumed, shaped their psyches and hopes for connection in the pre-digital era.
View the display on the 3rd floor through August 1st. And take part in a July collage workshop led by the artist!
LGBTQIA+ Young Artists
Celebrate Pride Month with a vibrant art exhibit showcasing the creativity and voices of recent local high school graduates.
This display is located on the 3rd floor.
