Flaming Idols are altar candles featuring inspiring figures of the LGBTQ community, created and handmade by Philadelphia artist and activist Robin Markle. 
 
Sara Ramirez is a multi-talented bisexual and non-binary star of stage and screen. After winning the 2005 Tony Award for best featured actress in a musical for their role in Spamalot, they spent a decade playing bisexual Dr. Callie Torres on Grey's Anatomy. Born in Mexico, they immigrated to the US at age 8 and have used their platform to advocate for immigrant and LGBTQ communities, saying, "I think acting and activism are both about empathy."
