CROSSROADS

CROSSRAODS, CROSSWINDS, CROSSCURRENTS, CROSSFIRES at JUDSON CHURCH, and The 14/Y

A series empowering multigenerational LGBTQ and feminist artists in dialogue with their communities.

Since 2017, Pioneers Go East Collective’s high visibility curated series of works-in-process at Judson Church. We empower multidisciplinary artists who explore new genres and known performance and art-making modes to share their creative practices with other artists and their audiences. Each evening we witness different generations of artists dealing with actual, day-to-day, contemporary challenges to further discussion between artists and communities and to activate a network of exchange and inclusion with social and artistic intervention.

If you'd like to participate in our series - please email community@pioneersgoeast.org with the subject: Crossroads - Inquiry'. Please include a short description of your work and a video. All participants are welcome and encouraged to apply and will be considered based on availability.
