Join the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art on October 10th, on the eve of the 36th Annual National Coming Out Day, for a discussion exploring queer representation and visibility as lasting tools within LGBTQIA+ politics and culture.
Moderated by LLMA board member, writer, and activist Raquel Willis, this discussion brings together Assembly Member and first openly gay member of the New York State Legislature Deborah J. Glick, photographer and Lesbian Herstory Archivist Morgan Gwenwald, poet and performer Pamela Sneed, and actor and comedian Jes Tom in honor of National Coming Out Day. Together, we reflect collectively on the implications of representation, assessing the present state of culture and queer visibility across gender, race, and class, historically and towards a queer futurity.
