Resist Erasure: Art by and for 2SLGBTQIA+ Thriving is the newest exhibit at Artists’ Alley at the McKinley Foundation. The exhibit is made up of works by area high school and college students and features two-dimensional original artwork. The exhibited works responds to the current political climate towards the 2SLGBTQIA+ community in light of limiting legislation, book bans, harassment, and more.
There will be an interactive exhibit opening on September 28th. Fifty hand-numbered copies of an original print by Kadin Henningsen of Meanwhile Letterpress will be available for sale. Attendees can print bookmarks on Henningsen’s mobile letterpress, and can also fill out a blank postcard with a response to be added to the exhibit as part of the “Add Your Voice” component.
