Here, Black, Femme & Queer
This exhibition of images shines a light on the lives and legacies of Black, femme, & queer people from right here in Kentucky. From the fiery performances of Toni LaFlame to the downtown strolls of Sweet Evening Breeze, these individuals have played a crucial role in making Lexington a safer space for the LGBTQ+ community.
Some of these images were collected through Facebook posts and messages from members of Lexington’s queer community while most are from the collections of the Faulkner Morgan Archive.
