Queer and fabulous: Stepping out for Rainbow Prom

Attendees at this year's Rainbow Prom - where two-spirit and LGBTQ students and allies could dine and dance in a safe space - enjoyed the night at Michelangelo Banquet Centre on Wednesday. This year's event featured Hamilton-based Talli Osborne - an inspirational speaker and musician born without full arms or legs - and, of course, a rainbow theme. It's really great to have a space to be ourselves and not be worried what other people are thinking," said Johnston.
