Pride Month recognizes and celebrates the culture, contributions, history and future of the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) community.
The City of Lakewood joins hundreds of public and private organizations around the nation in paying tribute to this important commemoration, and has issued a proclamation honoring LGBTQ Pride Month.
The Los Angeles County Library has created a comprehensive Pride Page filled with resources and materials to inform and celebrate the LGBTQ community. There are booklists for all ages and many events in which to participate.
For details, go to www.LACountyLibrary.org and search there for resources and materials available at the two county libraries in Lakewood: George Nye, Jr. Library and Angelo M. Iacoboni Library.
