LGBTQIA+ individuals, and allies, often hold unique perspectives. JOMO EQ, a Joplin, Missouri community support group, and Spiva Center for the Arts are delighted to present an opportunity for queer artists to display artwork that reflects their personal perspectives or experiences.

The goal of WHO I AM: A Queer Perspective is to offer a formal space where queer-focused art is welcomed and can improve lives by making meaningful connections between queer artists and their supporters.                                                                                              
Be seen. Be understood. Be recognized.                                                
It's time to come together and explore the queer experience while celebrating our values, strengths, and love. With the power of creativity our community can heal and uplift each other.

All mediums will be accepted. This is an all-ages exhibition that will be on display from September 5-28, 2024.

Application Requirements

WORK REQUIREMENTS:

We reserve the right to omit any works that do not meet gallery requirements once they arrive. If accepted, artists will be required to deliver or ship the work at their own expense (including return shipping).
