Visitors, rainbow allies, and the queer community are invited to have their portrait taken by a staff member and pinned to Ellen Melville’s evolving display board. This simple installation showcases the diversity, integration, and support within our community, creating a visual celebration of acceptance and belonging.

Smiles and dynamic profiles, fun snapshots that require no props, just your authentic self, will serve as a growing exhibition for visitors to enjoy throughout the festival. Each interaction fosters a personal connection between participants and the centre, encouraging a sense of familiarity and comfort.

At the festival's conclusion, the wall will be carefully archived, preserving this heartfelt celebration of Tāmaki Makaurau's vibrant rainbow and ally communities. Join in and leave your mark on the Polaroid Wall of Pride!
