Pride Jigsaw Puzzle Assembly

I did my usual sorting routine.

  1. Sorting to locate all  the outside border pieces, while....
  2. Placing the pieces into the 'general-color' layout onto the Grateful House puzzle trays. These trays are 14" x 10" in a pack of 8. I can layout all the pieces easily IF I use the lid for the edge pieces. This example is using the Cobble Hill Brand puzzle at 1000 pieces and puzzle Size is 26.625" x 19.25".

During my first sort I pulled out the border pieces so following along with the frame image on the box and the rainbow colours, it went together quite well.

Then I moved onto the flags along the bottom. I started to match up the background colours as in the purples, yellows, oranges, greens and red. Also, I pieced together the text images into clusters and placed them into their tentative positions. There were a few rainbow areas  that were outstanding too.

Pride Jigsaw Puzzle Comments...

The matte finish is always nice on these puzzles. I was totally delighted with everything about this puzzle. This Pride Jigsaw Puzzle certainly sends a LOT of messages as society speaks out about genders.  I can remember back in the late 70's hearing about Anita Bryant and before that the Stonewall Riots.  Then of course the most recent Black Lives Matter. It sad situation that these social issues still exist into today's society.

That said, I sure can appreciate that Cobble Hill and other puzzle companies, respectfully produce these powerful images in the form of puzzles. Of course it is good for the Companies but also the fact that the images sends strong messages that will circulate for many years to come. It helps keep the issues in the forefront which is important.

I have also have the pleasure of assembling Canada Parks Reserves which shares informative sites and parks in Canada.

How Jigsaw Puzzle Companies Connect

with the Gay Pride Community

Introduction: Jigsaw puzzles have always been a medium for artistic expression and a source of entertainment. In recent years, puzzle companies have recognized the importance of embracing diversity and inclusivity, including the gay Pride community. By producing jigsaw puzzles featuring gay pride images and themes, these companies have played a significant role in supporting the LGBTQ+ movement and fostering a sense of belonging and acceptance. Let's explore how jigsaw puzzle companies connect with the gay Pride community and contribute to positive change.

Representation and Visibility: Jigsaw puzzle companies have realized the power of representation in fostering inclusivity. By featuring gay pride images on their puzzles, these companies provide visibility to the LGBTQ+ community and its vibrant culture. These puzzles showcase the diverse identities, stories, and experiences within the community, helping to break stereotypes and promote understanding and acceptance.

Supporting the LGBTQ+ Movement: Producing jigsaw puzzles with gay pride images is not just about commercial gain; it's a statement of solidarity and support for the LGBTQ+ movement. Puzzle companies recognize the importance of actively participating in social change by using their platforms to promote equality and celebrate diversity. By incorporating gay pride themes, they contribute to the broader conversation of acceptance and inclusion.

Collaboration with LGBTQ+ Artists and Designers: Many jigsaw puzzle companies collaborate with LGBTQ+ artists and designers to create their gay pride-themed puzzles. These collaborations provide opportunities for artists within the community to showcase their talent, gain recognition, and make a positive impact. By working with LGBTQ+ creatives, puzzle companies infuse authenticity and sensitivity into their designs, ensuring that the puzzles resonate with the community they represent.

Building Community and Connection: Jigsaw puzzle companies play a vital role in building connections and fostering a sense of community. By producing gay pride-themed puzzles, they create a space where individuals from the LGBTQ+ community and their allies can come together, celebrate their identities, and find common ground. Completing these puzzles becomes an act of solidarity, a way to express support, and a means to engage in conversations around LGBTQ+ issues.

Educational and Conversational Tools: Gay pride-themed jigsaw puzzles serve as educational tools that facilitate important conversations about LGBTQ+ history, rights, and challenges. Many of these puzzles incorporate significant moments, icons, and symbols from the LGBTQ+ movement, providing an opportunity for individuals to learn about its rich heritage. As families and friends gather to solve these puzzles, they can engage in meaningful dialogues that promote understanding, empathy, and respect.

Fundraising and Support: Jigsaw puzzle companies also contribute to the LGBTQ+ community through fundraising efforts. They often donate a portion of the sales proceeds from their gay pride-themed puzzles to LGBTQ+ organizations and initiatives. This financial support aids in promoting equal rights, providing resources for mental health support, and furthering advocacy efforts.

Conclusion: Jigsaw puzzle companies have recognized the importance of supporting and connecting with the gay Pride community. By producing gay pride-themed puzzles, these companies celebrate diversity, foster inclusivity, and contribute to positive change. Through representation, collaboration, and community-building, puzzle companies are actively participating in the LGBTQ+ movement, providing a platform for education, dialogue, and support.
