The Pride Fund warmly invite you to kick off the Victorian Pride Centre’s ‘Coming Out! Celebrating 50 Years of Gay Liberation’ weekend, at the launch of the new book ‘The Making of the Victorian Pride Centre’ by Dr Judith Buckrich, and accompanying exhibition, on Friday 2 December 2022.

The book will be launched by the Hon. Martin Foley MP, former Minister for Equality.

The book explores the history of LGBTIQ+ communities in Victoria, and tells the story of the Victorian Pride Centre, from conception to design and construction and features stunning photographs of its journey as Australia’s first purpose-built Pride Centre. Register your attendance here –> www.trybooking.com/CDSAL

Proceeds from the sale of the book go towards the Victorian Pride Centre’s Rooftop Pavilion Campaign.

The launch will be followed by a dinner organised by The Pride Fund at Bergerac Bistro and bar at Tolarno in St Kilda. Tickets for this available here –> https://www.trybooking.com/CEIRQ
