Mapping Q: Artwork Submission Deadline
Commencement Closure
UAMA will be closed on Friday, May 10, in recognition of the University's commencement celebration.
We believe in the power of art to spark essential conversations and enhance research at our university and in our community.
This artmaking workshop series invites LGBTQ+ youth to explore topics like self-care, community building, and harm reduction.
Since 2014, the Mapping Q program has created safe spaces for LGBTQ+ youth to reflect on identity and community through the visual arts.
During its annual workshop series, youth explore topics like self-care, community building, and harm reduction. The workshops are always free and take place both at UAMA and various other community sites.
The series culminates in an exhibition of work made by youth participants. Presented in the UAMA's Our Stories Community Gallery, it showcases the creative resilience of LGBTQ+ youth artists, who skillfully communicate what it means to identify as queer today.
If you are an educator or organization that serves LGBTQ+ youth and would like to host a Mapping Q workshop, please contact Chelsea Farrar, Curator of Community Engagement.
