Drop by Springer Market Square from 2-2:30 p.m. June 11 for Drag Queen Storytime. Drag queens will showcase books promoting the messages of diversity, inclusion, and acceptance. If it rains the program will move to the Central Branch.
KFPL is also looking forward to connecting with the community at Movies in the Square on June 16 and Kingston Pride events on June 18.
“The Library is a welcoming place for diverse voices and perspectives, and we endeavour to reflect that in our programming,” said Kristen Lemay, Acting Manager, Programming and Outreach. “We’re happy to celebrate Pride with Kingston Frontenac, and to recognize the contributions, history, and achievements of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community! Promoting acceptance and diversity has a positive impact on everyone.”
