Grimes gallery ends hosting weddings after civil rights settlement
The Gortz Haus Gallery owned by Betty and Richard Odgaard in Grimes will stop hosting weddings for all couples after settling a civil rights complaint with Lee Stafford and Jared Ellers. The 5,000 dollar settlement acknowledged no discrimination based on sexual orientation and led to the broader decision to halt wedding services.
