Window Seat staff and cohort members will be  engaging the public creatively in what we're learning through the Pride Storytelling Project inside Capital City Pride’s Queerotica exhibit for Spring Arts Walk.

Window Seat is partnering with Capital City Pride to uplift local LGBT+ voices through the Pride Storytelling Project—a part of our Community Roots Oral History Initiative. Our 2024-25 cohort of narrative changemakers is documenting stories at the heart of local Queer spaces and organizing. They meet monthly for two years to learn the ethics and practice of oral history documentation, visit archives, design projects, and interview community narrators. In 2025-26, continuing and new cohort members will design creative projects to amplify what they’ve gathered with the broader community through public presentation and engagement.

We are excited to make our partnership with Capital City Pride for the Pride Storytelling project visible and what better place than where is all began - the Queerotica exhibit! Last year, Capital City Pride came to Window Seat and identified a lack of LGBTQ+ accounts of history in the local library and archive. We've been embarking on this documentation effort ever since.
