Your Art. Your Voice. Your Moment.
Back in January, Tony’s Place teamed up with The Feisty Collective to host our first-ever LGBTQ+ Youth Art Show and Auction. And y’all, when we say it was a hit, we mean it. The vibe was unreal, the talent was next-level, and the energy in the room was pure magic. We’re not just bringing it back; we’re turning it into a whole thing. Introducing the Queer Youth Art Show, now happening every quarter.
Here’s the deal: we’re curating a small group of LGBTQ+ artists, ages 14 to 25, to showcase and sell their work in a space built to celebrate and uplift queer creativity. This is your chance to share your art, connect with other young creatives, and make some real money while doing it; you keep every single dollar of what you earn. No fees, no cuts, no strings.
Our first show was just for the folks who come to our drop-in center; this time, we’re opening it up. If you’ve ever been to a Tony’s Place event or you’re connected to another LGBTQ+ org, you’re welcome to apply. It’s all about building community and making room for more voices at the table.
That said, it’s happening fast; the next show is in just two weeks. If this feels like your moment, go for it. Fill out the application below, tell us a bit about you and your work, and we’ll be in touch. There are a limited number of slots available; applying doesn’t guarantee you’ll be selected, but we want to hear from as many of you as possible.
We’ll announce the artist lineup on Friday, April 4. Let’s make this one even bigger.
