The Living Library is an essential part of our Pride Celebration, especially in these current times. We’re lucky enough to have members of our community, all with very different stories, share their lived experiences with us so we can learn, grow, revaluate our biases, and consider another person’s journey. Trauma. Tragedy. Triumph. Real people. Real stories. Unsung heroes. Each of our speakers have volunteered to share the hardships that have shaped their lives and how they decided to take control instead of being destroyed by them. Please join us in this beautiful experience at the McConnell Library in Sydney at 6pm – it’s not often we get an opportunity like this. Hope to see you there!
