In interrogating how the intersection of queer and racial identity informs notions of belonging, Body of Land hopes to show the multiplicity of lesbian and queer histories. Body of Land is set for publication in 2025, with submissions opening in September. 

Join us for an evening of multimodal performances and visual treats as writers and artists come together to revel in the light, after dark.
