Reception: January 16, 12- 2pm
We seek healing through the queer imaginary and art magic. We take pride in our true bodies while exploring our potential beyond the binary. We create work that draws from personal experience, dreams, history, and community. We invite you to celebrate and reflect on our individual and collective somatic experiences.
