WELCOME

This Is Oz is an online photo gallery where people can help fight discrimination against Australia’s gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (GLBT) community. Part art project, part human rights campaign, This Is Oz is all about making Australia a place where everyone belongs.

We'll be updating our homepage and photo gallery daily with our favourite images and pics of our celeb friends, so come back and visit soon!
