Please join us THIS Saturday October 19thfrom 10 am – 1 pm for an amazing opportunity to participate in a national project called Self Evident Truth Project sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) and participation is 100% FREE!
The Self Evident Truth Project (SETP) is based out of New York and is making rounds in California this week, making a special trip in Visalia just to see us!
In the words of the Self Evident Truth Project:
“SETP is a photographic record of LGBTQ America today. The aim is to take a simple portrait of anyone who’s anything other than 100% straight or feels they fall on the LGBTQ spectrum in any way. The goal is to show the humanity that exists in all of us through the simplicity of a face.”They challenge Americans to look into the faces of these people and tell them they deserve less than any other human being.
