April 30, 2016
5:00pm - 6:30pm
Lecture Hall — Level 1
The News at SOMArts Cultural Center is a place for artists and audiences to share unabashedly political, vulnerable, sexual or otherwise challenging new, queer performance. The News, now in its fourth year, has hosted over 250 performers and 35 curators. This OE discussion centers on what an artist/curator and an arts organization have learned in working together to form an evolving, open model that creates artist-led space each month for queer perspectives in a city where spaces are rapidly vanishing.
