Asia North 2026 Queer Asian Gallery Walk + Talkback

This exhibit features works by APIMEDA (Asian, Pacific Islander, Middle Eastern and Desi American) artists on themes of hospitality as a malleable practice shaped by diaspora, cultural tradition, inheritance, colonial commodification, and celebration.

This free event invites participants to reflect on how queerness and Asian identity intersect in our daily lives. Together, we will enjoy a gallery walk of the exhibition as shared experience, followed by a facilitated talkback and dialogue with several queer artists from the show: Riya Devi-Ashby, Anna Divinagracia, Katherine Pon-Cooper, and AX Qin.

The gathering is open to all, with a special invitation to those who identify as queer, APIMEDA, and/or part of diasporic comunities. Come as you are - no prior art experience needed - and be a part of a collective exploration! Refreshments will be provided.
