Building on that legacy, members of the rainbow community took part in a pride flag-making workshop at Tuhura Otago Museum for Dunedin Pride Month, held in March. Since the original flag, there have been different versions created to represent a segment or part of the rainbow community. For example, Theodora Morris, one of the workshop participants, created three flags — pan-romantic, gender-queer and orchid-sexual. Museum programme and events co-ordinator Rachel MacJeff said the museum provided a template for the progress pride flag but wanted to make it easy for people to make their own designs.
