JUNE GALLERY: fifty shades of gay

Opens Friday, June 14, 2024, 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM EST

In celebration of Pride month, Wild Goose Creative proudly presents its upcoming Wild Gallery Exhibition: "Fifty Shades of Gay," highlighting Queer artists in June. "LGBTQ+" encompasses a diverse spectrum of identities, including lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and others. Inspired by iO Tillett Wright's TedxWomen Talk, "Fifty Shades of Gay," our exhibition draws parallels between geographical borders and the nuances of LGBTQ+ experiences in the United States.

Just as geographical lines delineate states and shape our understanding of terrain, societal boundaries often confine and define LGBTQ+ identities. Yet, from a distance, these lines blur, and the nation united as one. "Fifty Shades of Gay" seeks to provide a platform for Queer artists to express their narratives, whether through exploration of identity, community, or personal journey.
