June is Pride Month and The Amp is hosting a new gallery show to celebrate the talented LGBTQIA+ artists in our community. “Echoes of Us” will be curated by our Director of Ceramics, Kaylee Gernant. Here is her curation statement for the show:

“Throughout human history, queer voices have been silenced and forced to conform to a world that is oftentimes close minded and hateful. Echoes of Us is a collection of works from queer artists showing resilience, community, identity, and love! 

We want to share the work of our LGBTQIA+ artists this Pride Month with “Echoes of Us,” which will celebrate the brilliant artistry and amazing resilience of that community. We hope that these voices, evident in their work, echo far and loud, and that they can be unapologetically themselves.”

Join us on June 12th, from 5:30 to 8:30 PM for the opening of Echoes of Us. The gallery will remain up through 9 PM on Saturday, June 13th, and can be seen during The Amp’s hours of operation: 9 AM to 9 PM.
