How fair is the city of Lexington for its LGBTQ citizens 20 years after passing the Fairness Ordinance? Join community and civic leaders as we celebrate the legacy of the Fairness Ordinance and unravel the threats it's facing right now. Let's contemplate how we move our city, and our state, towards greater equality.

A reception follows immediately afterwards in the gallery, where guests can view the new exhibit, Our Fair City: The 1999 Lexington Fairness Ordinance.

This is a free event thanks to the generous support of the Kentucky Local History Trust Fund Grant, the Kentucky Historical Society, and JustFundKY.

Celebrations for the 20th Anniversary of the Lexington Fairness Ordinance are sponsored by the Faulkner Morgan Archive, Lexington Fairness, Lexington History Museum, and the Lexington Public Library.
