Our Voices, Our Stories

butchOUT, in association with Flat Shadow Productions is proud to announce a new collaborative program

Our Voices, Our Stories

Preserving the rich heritage of gay men in Western North Carolina—through personal stories that honor our past, celebrate our culture, and keep our history alive.

‘Our Voices, Our Stories’ is dedicated to preserving, celebrating, and sharing the diverse lived experiences of gay men in Western North Carolina. Through personal narratives, oral histories, and multimedia storytelling, we aim to honor the resilience, identity, and cultural contributions of our community—past and present.

By amplifying these voices, we foster understanding, connection, and a richer, more inclusive regional history for future generations.
