See work by six trans and gender non-conforming artists – Salvador de la Torre, Badly Licked Bear, Xelestial Moreno-Luz, Umi Hsu, Toria Maldonado, and Liam Woods. Plus: Experience an oral history archive by artist and scholar Álvaro D. Márquez that documents the emerging philosophies of the exhibiting artists as they navigate asymmetrical systems of power. 

In addition to the exhibition, the artists will lead workshops for members of the LGBTQ+ community throughout July and August.

The exhibition and opening reception are free and open to the public.
