Queer Artist Survival Strategies: Salon and Workshop #2

EARTH Lab SF (Beth Stephens) and Jason Wyman / Queerly Complexare hosting THREE Peer Exchanges at the new 465 Collective Space to harness the peer power of San Francisco Bay Area Queer Artists to co-create survival tactics, tools, and frameworks.

TOPIC TWO: Queer Life Social Security - What kinds of security do we queers need to live (and thrive) in thisoppressive world? This question will be the featured topic of our second Peer Exchange, where we will craft our Personal Social Security Cards. We can display these cards should we find ourselves in a place of insecurity oremergency. They will remind us of who we are, what to do, and who to rely on in case of emergency. E.A.R.T.H. Lab SF and Queerly Complex will compile the tactics, ideas, and strategies generated through this exercise into a Queer Security Tip Sheet and publish it via the Culture Tending Commons. We will also be sharing all of our backend organizing tactics so other queers / dykes / fags can facilitate similar conversations and collective knowledge generation in their communities.

At the new 465 Collective (the old Femina Potens space), 465 South Van Ness.
