Every Civilization Begins With Art

“There is no civilization that did not begin with art, Whether it was drawing a line in the sand, painting a cave or dancing.”

Every Civilization Begins With Art
Inspiring Creativity - Toni Morrison Quote

Creativity is how we survive, thrive, and shape our identities as Queer people. We excel at many of the traditional art forms and create genres unique to us, like drag performance. Our art builds community, challenges norms, and creates spaces where we truly belong. It’s how we lay the foundation for a more inclusive world. More than self-expression, our way of drawing lines, making marks, and starting movements shapes culture and ensures our voices are heard.
