FREE BOOK! Join the Salkum Timberland Library for their discussion of Pageboy by Elliot Page 📖 🌈

Come celebrate LGBTQ+ Pride Month at the Library! Join community members and library staff for a discussion of Pageboy by Elliot Page, "a beautifully written, winding journey of what it means to untangle ourselves from the expectations of others is an ode to stepping into who we truly are with defiance, strength, and joy."

This program is sponsored by Rooted in Lewis County. A limited number of free copies of the book will be available to keep after discussion.

🥁Drum roll please…. for the annual Donny’s Pride Picnic!

This picnic originally was created by Donny and his husband Cliff, over a decade ago. Since Donny’s passing, local community members have stepped up to continue the tradition with Cliff in serving the Lewis County LGBTQ+ community in a fun summer get together 🌈

This event is all ages, potluck style, and hosted at the King Rancho (197 Pier Rd, Chehalis, WA) 🌻

Can’t wait to see you all there!

Yum yum! 🌈

🌈 Happy Pride, y'all!

Excited to share that our seasonal Pride Tea is back!

This blend features nettles, tulsi, calendula, roses, licorice root, and butterfly pea flower. Brewed on its own, it creates a beautiful turquoise tea. Add a squeeze of lemon and watch it turn pink.

🌈🌈🌈

We owe pride to trans women. We owe pride to our LGBTQ+ elders and ancestors. We owe pride to all who put their lives on the line for q***r liberation.

At PFLAG National, we proudly take up the mantle of those who fought before us, and lead with love in pursuit of an accepting, affirming, and equitable world for our LGBTQ+ loved ones.

Happy Pride.🏳️‍🌈🔥
