Soto activate a promise of lightning's exhibition meeting area to co-host a conversation on fitness, movement, and trans embodiment. This salon is a conversation for those interested in talking about the joy that strength-training and movement of all kinds can bring, centering trans and queer folks and their experiences. In the framework of <a href="https://leslielohman.org/exhibitions/andrea-geyer-a-promise-of-lightning" title="https://leslielohman.org/exhibitions/andrea-geyer-a-promise-of-lightning" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">a promise of lightning</a>, this salon series offers the exhibitions meeting area in service of queer collectives, organizations, friends and individuals to gather and discuss queer issues and ideas in art, public health, and organizing, following from the tradition of literary and ideological movements of the 17th and 18th centuries. Additional ad hoc salons will take place on Sundays between 4:30–5:30pm throughout the exhibition's duration this September 4 – January 12, 2025, at the Leslie-Lohman Museum of Art, 26 Wooster Street | New York, NY 10013. <a href="https://www.notion.so/andreageyerstudio/Come-out-with-joy-speak-out-for-justice-A-Queer-Salon-Series-395aded75e894b7996b899e661d424c6" title="https://www.notion.so/andreageyerstudio/Come-out-with-joy-speak-out-for-justice-A-Queer-Salon-Series-395aded75e894b7996b899e661d424c6" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Please check this link for updated information on all events surrounding the exhibition.</a> This salon series follows a non-hierarchical model, with co-hosts present to suggest guided questions and support facilitation, but with all attendees encouraged to engage in dialogue. With the exception of Sept 22nd: Finding Balance (which was lifestreamed for community afar), salons are not recorded or documented. They are for those who can be present in the space.
