On April 23, 2024, more than 130 students, staff, faculty and community members joined the UCCS Kraemer Family Library and MOSAIC and LGBTQ+ Resource Center in the unveiling of the library’s newest art collection. “Having art pieces on campus, at pretty popular spaces no less, that are explicitly for LGBTQ+ communities and allies, is extremely important to me as someone who is openly queer,” said UCCS Junior and QTPOC and Two-Spirit President, Kane Ruiz (any pronouns). Seth M. Porter, Dean of the Library and Senior Executive Director, emphasized the significance of the Club Q Memorial Art Project to the community, stating, “This project is a crucial part of our collective healing, serving both as a memorial to the victims and a symbol of our community’s resilience and solidarity.”
