Queer humans and culture are vitally important to this website and the local art scene on a whole. A BIG THANK YOU to the artists, writers, and hustlers who push against default thinking on sexuality and gender norms every day. Their work, their insight, and their expression improves the world around us. MPLSART will always enable, validate, and stand up for queerness in art.
