UIS to host “Love Makes a Family” touring exhibit

UIS will host the Family Diversity Project’s touring exhibit "Love Makes a Family: Portraits of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender People and their Families" on Wednesday, October 11, in the Student Life Building. A reception will begin at 6:30 that evening.
