Upcoming Events

…And We Shine Opening Reception

Saturday, April 25, 2026 · 4-6 PM · Apuzzo Hall Gallery

On View: April 25 to June 27, 2026

This exhibition brings together the paintings of the late Afro-Boricua artist and community organizer Gerardo Castro (1970–2024), the photography of artist and organizer Sabrina Kee, and a large-scale work by artist Raymond Vagg. Together, these three practices create a space that is at once ceremony, altar, and celebration, in which the past, present, and future of queer communities of color coexist in the same room.

A community altar installation will be present throughout the entire run of the show. Visitors are invited to bring their own ofrendas: a flower, a photograph, a written word, any offering the hands know how to make. The altar belongs to no single tradition. All traditions welcome.

LGBTQ+ Film Series: Come See Me In The Good Light

Saturday, April 25, 2026 · 7 PM

“Come See Me in the Good Light” is a poignant and unexpectedly funny love story about poets Andrea Gibson and Megan Falley facing an incurable cancer diagnosis with joy, wit and an unshakable partnership. Through laughter and unwavering love, they transform pain into purpose, and mortality into a moving celebration of resilience.

Free and open to all. RSVP suggested but not required
