Noreen Mian: Rainbow has returned home
We are home.
In many ways, the move to 545 Broadway feels like a return to home. The queer community has deep roots in the West Broadway neighbourhood and we are honoured to share in the decades of community activism and history that have taken place within these four walls at 545 Broadway. As Rainbow’s 50th Anniversary year comes to a close, our reflections on the past 50 years of identity, advocacy and community have given rise to where we are now, proudly and unapologetically taking up space and launching the next 50 years of space, services and advocacy. -
