This vibrant six-part workshop series invites Logan lesbians, sapphics, bisexual, queer women, including trans women to explore identity, resilience, and pride through powerful creative expression.

Each session combines personal storytelling with collaborative art-making—ranging from mannequin sculptures and woven pride tapestries to expressive self-portraits and murals of chosen family, resilience, and joy.

Through immersive installations and public participation at Loud and Proud Logan 2025, the series fosters connection, celebrates queer narratives, and builds a living archive of community strength and self-love.

Proudly funded by Lesbians Incorporated.
