The exhibit draws on archival materials from that collection as well as from UVM Special Collections, the Out in the Open Andrews Inn Oral History Project, and the personal collections of those featured in the exhibition. It also includes interviews with twelve activists and organizers crucial to the establishment of Pride in Burlington.
