On exhibit May 31- July 2
In honor of the Stonewall Uprising in June of 1969–heralded as a catalyst of the pro-LGBT movement in the United States–LGBTQ* Pride Month is widely celebrated in June, including here at CAL. Artist and writer Brandon Wint defines Queer as “escaping definition…like some sort of fluidity and limitlessness at once…like a freedom too strange to be conquered. Queer like the fearlessness to imagine what love can look like and pursue it.”
And that’s what to expect from this show highlighting local queer artists and art: Art that escapes definition; art that’s strange and soft and strong and unconquerable; art courageous enough to imagine what the world could be, and bold enough to create and share it with us.
The Queer Show is a juried show open to all queer artists 16+ years old, all media welcome.
