ABOUT OUT OF THE OFFICE
Andrew Hayes founded "OUT Of The Office" in 2001 to provide a forum where LGBTQ+, allies, family, and friends could gather downtown to kick off Gay Pride Month in Chicago. In 2023, Andrew passed management of this extremely popular event to Legacy Project Chicago in support of our work to provide LGBTQ-Inclusive and Affirming education resources and curricula for public school students. The Legacy Project exists to inspire the next generation of LGBTQ leaders to steward forward the gains they have inherited.
ABOUT THE LEGACY PROJECT
The award-winning Legacy Project works to educate the general public about the many roles Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) people have played in the advancement of world history and culture. Through "The Legacy Walk" in Chicago (the world's only outdoor LGBTQ museum and Chicago's newest Historic Landmark); "The Legacy Project Education Initiative" ( the foundation of Illinois's new LGBTQ-Inclusive Curriculum); and "The Legacy Wall" (traveling digitally-interactive exhibit) - the Legacy Project challenges the social and cultural marginalization of LGBTQ youth that fuels bullying.
