Join local artist J.R. Uretsky to embroider a flag for their project, The Survival Compromise. Come try embroidery, enjoy snacks, and chat with the artist about their work.
The Survival Compromise is a project that explores the challenges faced by queer and female creatives in a capitalist society defined by wealth disparity and systemic exploitation. As billionaires thrive, the rights and creative expressions of non-binary and transgender individuals and women become increasingly vulnerable. This work illuminates how queer and female creatives cultivate resilience while navigating persistent threats to their bodily autonomy and the economic instability imposed by capitalism. Learn more
The Survival Compromise is supported by the Interlace Grant Fund, a partner of The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, as well as funding from the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts through state appropriations and grants from the National Endowment for the Arts.
