he creation of the official flyer for the 2023 Lavender Graduation hosted by the Pride Center was a project of profound significance and artistic vision. Our approach to this particular endeavor was imbued with a sense of abstraction, with the primary focal point being a portrayal of a QTPOC (Queer and Trans People of Color) individual enveloped by a lush tapestry of greenery and foliage. This abstract composition was strategically chosen to convey a sense of inclusivity, unity, and the organic growth of LGBTQ+ individuals as they thrive and celebrate their achievements within a nurturing and supportive environment.

The underlying theme for the Lavender Graduation in 2023 was that of a mystical forest, a concept that carried with it a wealth of symbolic connotations. This theme was meticulously incorporated into the flyer design to provide attendees with a tangible sense of what they could anticipate at the event. The mystical forest theme, with its elements of enchantment, exploration, and transformation, was translated into the flyer through the vibrant greenery and foliage that framed the central figure, effectively creating a visual representation of the event’s ambiance.

The flyer, with its abstract yet evocative design, not only served as a source of information but also as an invitation to a space where individuals of diverse backgrounds could come together and celebrate their academic accomplishments. The fusion of the abstract composition and the mystical forest theme artfully expressed the essence of the Lavender Graduation, celebrating the resilience and unity of the LGBTQ+ community.
