Description

Yarmulke or kippah worn by Tony Bove when he married Andy Williams in front of the Mississippi Valley Textile Museum on July 4, 2020. The Pride flag outside of the Museum was torn down and vandalized on June 24, 2020, and Williams and Bove decided to get married there, as "[r]adical acts of hate require radical acts of love as a response, and there is no act of love more radical than getting married". Williams spoke these words to a crowd of over 100 at the wedding, where they spontaneously chanted "love wins, love wins, love wins". The creator of was Sue Fowler of “Always Beautifully Creative” in Almonte.
