Free to Be
(in the wild)This campaign launched across all Freehouse Collective locations in Vancouver and Toronto. Components included custom menus, sandwich boards, posters, drag brunch events, and influencer partnerships.
At its core, the Pride movement is about the right of LGTBQIA2S+ community to be who they are without fear, judgment, or discrimination.
Together, we can strive to build a future where diversity is valued, love is celebrated, and everyone is free to be who they are.
