Gender and Sexualities Alliance Art Statement
-Joy Unshaken: Queer Youth in Times of Distress highlights the resilience and creativity of local LGBTQ+ youth. Through art, they bear witness to struggle while affirming joy, identity, and community as acts of resistance and hope.
-Even in times of distress, queer youth hold onto joy. This exhibit is a reminder that creativity can be both a lifeline and a celebration—an unshaken declaration of who they are and the futures they imagine.
