Rise Up: Stonewall and the LGBTQ Rights Movement, which explores the cultural transformation that propelled an underground movement into an intrinsic element of who we are as a nation, will open on June 26 at the Museum of Pop Culture.

With stories as diverse as the LGBTQIA+ community itself, Rise Up looks at the pop culture touchstones, political battles, creative luminaries, enduring challenges, and joyous victories that mark an ongoing period of change in American history.

In addition to the content in Rise Up, MoPOP has curated stories featuring the local LGBTQIA+ activists and artists that have impacted Seattle.
