Eight curators will curate six-seven performance artists or performing groups and four-five visual artists who will showcase their work together for four performances/exhibition times. Artists, curators and technicians will be supported in the process through one curatorial retreat, one artist potluck, two works-in-progress showings, one tech workshop, daily circle time during show week, and one post-show aftercare picnic. We will collect feedback from audience members with open-ended prompts on a survey. Artists will evaluate Queertopia, the curators, and each other at the aftercare picnic and evaluation resulting from that picnic will be harvested and considered by curators in future planning.
The outcomes of our project before we declared it incomplete are as follows: Our eight person curatorial board held 20 hours of meetings and independent working sessions between November of 2019 and September 24th of 2020.
