The atmosphere was energizing and unique. Each booth offered a different form of support to the LGBTQ+ Community, and each speaker shared a different perspective, which ranged from the Public Health Director to individuals who have come out themselves. As the night went on, you could see how people who supported and were identified in the LGBTQ+ spectrum grew more like a family&#8211;especially as the coming out stories were shared. I saw how many different possible outcomes there were which relied on so many different factors. No one told the same story as someone else.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0As someone who\u2019s only in the eighth grade, I\u2019d never been exposed to an environment with so many people who proudly supported those who are identified as LGBTQ+. Especially while working the library booth, so many different people came to the table; each had their own story that led them to being there that night; this shows exactly why coming out isn\u2019t an experience that resonates with only one age or one group of people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0A fellow Teen Advisory Board member, Kara Eng, expressed, \u201cI thought it was a really great event where everyone was really enthusiastic. I haven&#8217;t really seen anything like it in Pasadena and I&#8217;m excited that it&#8217;s an annual event.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0I agree. I can\u2019t wait to see the event next year, seeing the diversity of people, meeting different people, and hopefully some of the same. It will be especially interesting to see in what way the event changes and how it stays the same. I hope to see how more people have found their way to be at the event and celebrate National Coming Out Day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photos by Erik Hernandez<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery
