Queerly Yours: Community Art-Making Studio

Welcome to Queerly Yours - a celebration of all things 2SLGBTQQIA+! Join us in InnerSpace Art Therapy Studio's beautiful group studio space - cozy vibes, artsy energy and aesthetically pleasing-ness. This event is a safe(r) space for folks to express themselves, meet new people, spend time in community, and get to know themselves through art-making and creativity. Connect with like-minded individuals, share stories, and embrace the diversity that makes us all unique. Let's come together to create a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere that celebrates who we are.

Andrea's Queerly Yours Offering:

I'm Andrea, and I'm an ally to the queer community!

We will be exploring South Asian block printing together by learning a little about its history, and block printing on tote bags.

Using this tactile art form can be a way for you to practice storytelling using the motifs, and to hopefully embrace imperfection, since block prints often come out slightly different each time !

----

Snacks and beverages will be available (included in the pricing), and art supplies / materials will all be made available (also included in the pricing).

If you have any accessibility questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out: [email protected] ; I'm happy to collab in whatever capacity I can to help make events more accessible to folks.

*Unfortunately the studio space is not fully accessible at this time, there are a set of stairs to enter the building. Additionally, the bathrooms are gendered, however, during the times of the Queerly Yours events we do cover up the signs to make them gender neutral.

Unfortunately, lot parking is not available anymore. Street parking is available outside of the studio, as well as around the corner off of Main St. Our sincerest apologies for the parking change up at this time :(

Info: Soft start means that we won't officially get started with the event / workshop until 1:15 PM. This gives folks a chance to show up and arrive, get oriented to the space, move around the space, reflect and connect with others, grab snacks and beverages, etc.

Info: This is very approximate - but we will go around a meet everyone briefly (you are always welcome to pass or opt out of any sharing or speaking components of the workshop if you don't feel comfy). Lex will officially orient everyone to the space, where to find things, bathroom situations, etc. - as well as extend official invitations for snacks, beverages, freedom to take breaks whenever needed, art supplies. You are always welcome to speak to Lex directly if you are wishing for assistance in accessing anything in the space or have any questions or concerns.

Info: Please see description above for more specifics about the artist and their offerings. Offerings are always an invitation, so if you just wish to sit and listen and do your own thing in the space, you are more than welcome to as long as we are all being respectful of each other's space and the facilitator's capacity / ability to share their information and practice.

Info: Very approximate time frame - we will check in with one another on how the day went, what we learned or want to take from the workshop, and things that came up for us throughout the process. We will make metaphorical offerings to the group and one another in order to close in a good way. Folks are welcome to stick around for a little bit afterwards to chat further.
