Hello everyone,

had an idea for an event and wanted to test the water to see if you'd be interested.

right, plan is for an art competition/project/exhibition, open to all members.

any media would be fine, e.g. film, photos, paintings, poetry, stories etc.

any subject matter would be fine really, any style/technical ability accepted

please let me know

1) if you'd want to come to an exhibition evening
2) if you'd want to enter some material
3) whether you think there should be a 'theme' e.g. 'queer' or whether it should be totally open

personally i think this'd be a nice event for getting to know new people, held at the start of term cos it gives people lots of subject matter to chat about, and would be a nice opportunity for people to express themselves.

would appreciate your input

Great idea!

seeing as we would all be "queer" artists anyway, anything we do would be labled "queer" art, even if it was a picture of a dog, it would be somthng symbolic, just like any peice of art made by a female artist is called femanine, so i dont think thats necacary.

But i do think thats a great idea

yeah good point, doesnt seem to be a need for a theme then, also sometimes setting a theme makes for rather contrived works.

i think we should try and get a classy place (some dank hall in the LUU) to exhibit if the peices turn out to be any good, and sell them to the unsuspecting public.

Would it be open to former members as well?

It does sound quite cool and it would say a lot about lgbt soc too, for those out there who think all we do is drink (that only happens in the canary islands, really.)
