ON PRIDE WEEK
This year, the GSA has organised Pride Week for 2019-2020 from November 18th to 22nd. KGV Pride Week has now been established as an annual event. This year, we will be selling wooden pins with ribbons so you can help display your support for our cause! There will also be screenings with LGBT+ movies in the GLT, a photobooth in the quads, two guest speakers and a large pride flag that YOU can leave your mark on!

Art and film competition requirements
-
Please use LGBT+ instead of LGBTQ+ or any other acronyms, this is to avoid the negative stigma associated with the use of "Queer" and to keep to the "traditional" 4 groups recognised as part of the acronym. We use the + to symbolise our inclusiveness of outside groups.
-
Please do not include any foul language or homophobic terms
-
Submissions must include an LBTQ+ theme, including a pride flag in the poster itself
-
Physical or digital art is accepted
