June is Pride Month, and Queen’s is flying the Progress Pride Flag in front of Douglas Library to recognize this significant time of year and show support for the 2SLGBTQ+ community.

Throughout June, there are a number of ways to recognize Pride both on campus and in Kingston, including:
 

• Pride Sign Making Event hosted by Yellow House Student Centre for Equity and Inclusion, June 7, 3:30-6:30 p.m. at 140 Stuart St. (Queen’s community)
• Pride Rides cycle classes, every Monday in June at the Athletics and Recreation Centre
