For the 50th anniversary of Pride in Seattle, Seattle Pride and Seattle’s LGBTQ+ Center joint Pride Internship cohort is organizing an art exhibit that will be on display at Pride in the Park in Volunteer Park on June 1st. LGBTQIA+ artists may submit up to four pieces of art related to queerness for selection. If selected, you must prepare your work so it is ready to hang. If a work will be framed, please include the dimensions of the frame in the entry description.
