Designed for audiences of all ages, the “Love Makes A Family” photo-text exhibit (with photos by Gigi Kaeser and interviews by Peggy Gillespie) challenges stereotypes about lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people and helps dismantle homophobia. At a time in history when LGBT people continue to fight for basic human rights including the right to legally marry, the right to lead a Boy Scout troop, the right to have access to partner health benefits, and the right to be adoptive and foster parents, 'Love Makes A Family' helps cut through all the political arguments right to the heart of the issue by showing the love, caring, and connection that are so basic to all families. By allowing viewers to come face-to-face with LGBT people, 'Love Makes A Family' makes visible in a positive way, the love and caring in these families. This exhibit contributes to the process of dismantling the destructive power of prejudice and intolerance, thus making the world a safer place for all people.
