A Pride-themed monthly event series kicked off at the San Lorenzo Library on Wednesday in response to an incident that occurred during the library's Drag Queen Story Hour event last month.
The library's new event series "Every Month is Pride Month" will run for a full year, aiming to reaffirm Alameda County's support forcommunities. It was funded by Supervisor Dave Brown's office and supported by local LGBTQ+-oriented organizations.
"Today's events prove that Alameda County will always be a community based on love and acceptance, and that our residents are always ready to stand against all forms of hate and intolerance," Brown said at the ceremony. In addition to the ceremony, the library also hosted a day-long community art project, which invited residents to decorate large puzzle pieces that would connect to form a heart when hung in the library's cafe window.
