Shower of Stoles (Click on the images to enlarge them)

The Cultural Center, in collaboration with the Office of LGBTQA Student Services, hosted a collection of stoles on display for a week. The stoles tour nationally and bring light to some of the struggles and successes the LGBT community faces in the religious realm. Each stole tells the story of one LGBT person of faith, and how their sexual identity and religious traditions have intersected.

            Those that visited the exhibit shared reflections about the stoles. Many were intrigued by the stories portrayed on the stoles of combating injustices in the LGBTQ community. They shared a universal feeling that people should not be ashamed for who they are and they felt religious people should not be defined  by social parameters.
