A Cincinnati company made a Pride month mural out of 26,000 Post-It notes

CINCINNATI - Cincinnati Bell employees this week didn't use Post-It notes like they usually do. You know, to jot down reminders and stick up at their desks.

Instead, in honor of LGBTQ Pride month, more than 100 Cincinnati Bell employees used the sticky notes to create a Pride mural on the north side of the company’s Atrium II headquarters.

The mural extends from the 9th floor to the 16th floor and is made up of approximately 26,000 Post-it notes put on 96 windows.

And, for the first time, Cincinnati Bell on Wednesday night illuminated its signage on top of Atrium II using Pride colors. Both the mural and the Atrium 2 illumination, will remain through the end of June.

The company is a corporate sponsor of Cincinnati's Pride Parade set for June 22.

“Cincinnati Bell is committed to a supportive environment that encourages every employee to bring their full selves to work,” said Leigh Fox, president and CEO of Cincinnati Bell. “I am so proud of our Pride Employee Resource Group members, (who led the effort) and their leadership in driving Cincinnati Bell’s Pride Month celebrations.”
