Exhibit Request

To request an exhibit of stoles, please read about your responsibilities and costs, and fill out the form below.

Sacred Responsibility

The stoles are sacred and irreplaceable works of art. They need to be treated with the utmost care. It is your personal responsibility to make sure that the stoles are well-cared for and that all instructions are followed thoroughly. Full instructions will be included in your shipment. Please read and follow those instructions thoroughly.

Your responsibilities include:

  • Unpack and inventory the stoles.
  • Display the stoles, following all instructions.
  • Reinventory and carefully repack the stoles. Under no circumstances are the plastic-covered story panels to be folded!
  • Ship them back to us on the exact date you provide below. Your failure to return these stoles on time could prevent another group from having an exhibit.

Costs

We will pay to ship the stoles to you, and you will be responsible to return them to us via FedEx or UPS. (When you do so, you do not need to pay for any additional insurance. Do not use the US Postal Service.)

In addition to the return shipping, your costs will be:

  • $50 for exhibits of 1-50 stoles
  • $85 for exhibits of 51-125 stoles

You can pay this online (click here for online payment) or include this payment (checks to be made out to the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force) when you return the stoles to us. In addition, please consider an additional donation of up to one dollar per stole, and more as you are able. Your support allows this important witness to continue and grow. We thank you for your support!
