The images on display offer a window into the colorful and diverse world of queer nightlife, reflecting moments of joy, resilience, and unity. Featured photographers include Devlin Shand,
Down the street, The Midway Gallery presents a solo exhibition by Drew Pador of Openfire Photography. The exerpience includes music, a bar, and — of course — the stunning visual narratives on display. Madam Zola’s will also sell bites to complement the evening’s festivities.
San Francisco’s galleries are not just showcasing photographs; they are presenting histories, emotions, and the very fabric of a community that has thrived against many odds. This Thursday promises an unforgettable night, where art and life intermingle.
Whether you are an art aficionado, a member of the LGBTQ+ community, or simply someone who appreciates powerful storytelling through photography, these exhibitions have something for you.
