Had such a great time making jobakgo with @bellaki Had such a great time making jobakgo with @bellakimgallery at @artgalleryb612 on Saturday. It was such a treat as I've been a fan of Bella's work.I especially loved learning about its cultural significance, connecting to my heritage, and being in a room full of people curious and wanting to learn something new, including others looking to connect to heritage.

✨ What a night. ✨Thank you to everyone who came ✨ What a night. ✨Thank you to everyone who came out for the opening of Colors of Expression — the space was full, the energy was electric, and it was such a joy to celebrate queerness in glass together. Huge gratitude to our incredible artists for sharing their work and voices with us, and to everyone who showed up with curiosity, care, and excitement.Shout out as well to our amazing QTBIPOC vendors for bringing such thoughtful offerings, and to @BLKSTR_9 for keeping the energy up on the decks all night. Please give these artists and makers a follow if you haven’t already — your support means so much. 💜The show is on view through March 27, with lots of chances to come back and spend time with the work. Take a look at our calendar for upcoming workshops and events.We’ll close out the exhibition on Friday, March 27 from 6–8pm with our monthly community circle, reflecting together on all things at the intersection of glass, art, and queerness.
