From the early Pride picnics and festivals to the beginnings of Equality Florida, Rex was there, camera in hand, to document the people who have been instrumental in creating LGBT community and culture. Inspired by a traveling exhibition of the history of the LGBT movement, Rex undertook the task of capturing gay history in the making through his camera and video recordings. Moved by the stories of hidden lives told by Bobbie Smith and Kay Thompson, he began the Rainbow in Sunshine Project in January of 2007 to offer a photographic history of gay lives and activism in Tampa, Florida. He was a part of the GLBT \u0026 Hillsborough Democratic Executive Community and active in the Hillsborough County GLBTA Democratic caucus. Rex Maniscalco passed away April 4, 2009 at the age of 57","Note written by CW, 2015."],"processinfo_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003ePartially processed.\u003c/p\u003e"],"processinfo_heading_ssm":["Processing Information"],"processinfo_tesim":["Partially processed."],"relatedmaterial_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eBobby Smith Photograph Collection, USF Libraries - Tampa Special Collections, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida.\u003c/p\u003e"],"relatedmaterial_heading_ssm":["Related Materials"],"relatedmaterial_tesim":["Bobby Smith Photograph Collection, USF Libraries - Tampa Special Collections, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida."],"scopecontent_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThis collection contains photographs, negatives, and VHS recordings pertaining to Tampa GLBT culture and community and reflects the growing national visibility of gay and lesbian lives throughout the 1990s and early 2000s more generally.

It provides a forum for members to share ideas and techniques, and to coordinate their activities through joint action.\nCommunity Foundation in Jacksonville. In May 1964, four Jacksonville leaders – J.J. Daniel, Robert R. Feagin, Laurence Lee, Jr. and Thomas R. McGehee – formally created The Greater Jacksonville Area Community Foundation, the first community foundation in the State of Florida. Renamed as the Community Foundation in Jacksonville, it currently serves as steward of more than $100 million invested by the people of Jacksonville. In its first four decades, it made grants in excess of $90 million to benefit individuals and organizations.\nDuval Audubon Society. Founded in 1939, the Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the enjoyment of birds and other wildlife with a primary focus on preserving a diversity of habitats through education, conservation, environmental leadership, and community involvement. The Duval Society is affiliated with the Florida Chapter of the National Audubon Society.\nFlorida League of Conservation Voters, Northeast Florida Chapter. Founded in 1976, the Florida League, an informal coalition of conservation activists and leaders, serves as the nonpartisan advocacy and educational arm of the environmental/conservation movement in Florida. The group monitors the voting records and activities of Florida legislators and issues an annual \"scorecard\" on their environmental voting records.\nJacksonville Community Council Inc. Founded in 1975 as the Jacksonville Council on Citizen Involvement (1975-1978), JCCI is a nonpartisan civic organization that engages diverse citizens in open dialogue, research, consensus building and leadership development to improve the quality of life and build a better community in Northeast Florida. Its predecessor was the Community Planning Council.\nJacksonville Environmental Protection Board. The Board consists of nine members chosen to represent industry, conservationist organizations, professional engineers, the medical profession, and the general public. Its purpose is to develop regulations necessary for the administration and enforcement of the City's environmental laws.\nJacksonville Symphony Association Guild. Since the early 1950s, the Guild of the Jacksonville Symphony Association has worked to fulfill the goals of its founders \"to further an awareness of music and to create strong community support of the Jacksonville Symphony Orchestra through fundraising projects.\"\nNortheast Florida Coastal Zone Management Citizens Advisory Committee. From 1975, this Region IV Florida group was charged with evaluating and developing regional policies to complement the state Coastal Management Program.\nRiverside Avondale Preservation. Founded in 1974, this non-profit agency has been working to enhance and preserve the architecture, history, cultural heritage and economic viability of the historic Jacksonville neighborhoods of Riverside and Avondale.\nSan Marco Preservation Society.
