Welcome to Connect Northshore's Queer Artist Spotlight! This dedicated space is designed to honor, celebrate, and amplify the voices of our local LGBTQIA+ artists. Each month, we will feature a selection of vibrant works ranging from painting, sculpture, photography, literature, music, and more, each created by talented artists within our community.

The Queer Artist Spotlight aims to showcase the breadth and diversity of our community's creative landscape, highlighting artists whose work captures the unique experiences, perspectives, and expressions inherent in the LGBTQIA+ journey. As we honor these artists, we hope to foster a more inclusive, supportive, and understanding community.
