Queer|Art|Mentorship 2015-2016 Annual Exhibition "It's Kind of a Big Deal"
NOVEMBER 18-20, 2016
Leslie-Lohman Prince Street Project Space
127-B Prince Street
Queer|Art|Mentorship has partnered with Leslie-Lohman Museum of Gay and Lesbian Art for its third annual public exhibition at the Museum's Price Street Project Space from November 18-20th. A series of exhibitions, screenings and performances will take place throughout the weekend, featuring work by the 2015–2016 Queer|Art|Mentorship Fellows -- Rodrigo Bellott, Monstah Black, Caroline Wells Chandler, Erin Greenwell, Doron Langberg, Jacob Matkov, Mylo Mendez, Eva Peskin, Hugh Ryan, Justine Williams and Brendan Williams-Childs.
The multi-disciplinary, inter-generational arts program that pairs and supports mentorship between emerging and established queer artists in NYC, broadens its reach with this public program, exhibiting artwork from each of its participant from the 2015–2016 program. The exhibition marks the close of the 12-month mentorship cycle for these QAM Fellows, but will also serve as a public welcome to the 10 new 2016-2017 Queer/Art/Mentorship Fellows for the upcoming fellowship year.
In addition to the exhibition at the Museum's Prince Street Project Space, the Annual Exhibition will include work on display in the Window gallery at the main museum location on Wooster Street that will be on view from November 7th, 2016 – February 10th, 2017.
