Out in the IE

The Civil Rights Institute of Inland Southern California (CRIISC) is launching a special Pride Month pop-up exhibit titled “Out in the I.E.: A 50 Year Retrospective of the Inland Empire LGBTQ+ Community’s Tenacity, Triumphs, and Trailblazers. This innovative exhibit celebrates and honors the vibrant history, remarkable resilience, and significant contributions of the LGBTQ+ community in the Inland Empire over the past five decades–focusing on research done to develop the City of Riverside’s LGBTQ+ Historic Context Statement. In 2025, the Civil Rights Institute of Inland Southern California will host a larger regionwide exhibition. The free pop up exhibit will be open to the public from June 3 through June 13, 2024 from 10 AM to 4 PM, at the Bank of America Diversity Center, 3933 Mission Inn Avenue, Ste 102, Riverside.

The pop up exhibition is a joint project of CRIISC Inland Empire PRISM Collective, Rainbow Pride Youth Alliance, Riverside PRIDE, TruEvolution, and the UCR LGBT Resource Center.
