SUMMARY:The Wild and the Weeds
DESCRIPTION:Curated by McKenna Gray and The ArQuives Curatorial Committee \nCentering Hanlan’s Point Beach’s history and queer ecology\, The Wild and the Weeds proposes alternative ways of looking at and engaging with this queer site. The exhibition explores ecological consideration\, co-creation\, and kinship\, forging pathways for understanding queer past and imagining queer future. \nFeaturing artists Morris Fox\, Morgan Sears-Williams\, and Patrick Stochmal\, alongside material from The ArQuives’ collection\, Hanlan’s Point Beach is positioned as more than the site of the 1971 Gay Day Picnic\, addressing contemporary concerns of the queer community regarding gentrification and public space. Engaging with topics of public/private\, cruising\, decay\, and the erosion of the beach\, the artists provide a context through which we can view ecological entanglements with queer memory and identity. \nOpening reception: May 29 from 6 to 8pm \nArtist Roundtable (online): June 10 from 6 to 8pm \nOpen times and dates:\nFridays 4pm-8pm\nSaturdays 11am-3pm\nSundays 11am-3pm*\nClosed June 26\, 27\, 28 \nAppointments and curatorial tours available\, email curatorial@arquives.ca \n*Sundays are masked mandatory hours \nImage: Morgan Sears-Williams \nPlan your visit to The ArQuives
