Voices from the Community is a panel discussion that actively engages audiences with the content in About Face, providing perspectives other than those of the curator or institution. This dialogue will contribute to discourse surrounding queer art, addressing key themes that arise within the exhibition.
Participants include: Brendan Fernandes, artist and current Whitney Biennial participant; Sarita Hernández, arts educator and co-founder of Marimacha Monarca Press; artist and social worker Jessie Mott; Lisa Stone, Curator of the Roger Brown Study Collection; and Executive Director of Brave Space Alliance, LaSaia Wade.
This panel is moderated by Wrightwood 659 Exhibitions Manager, Lauren Leving.
