Gay pride art for home2/10/2024 San Diego has a wealth of LGBTQ artists and cultural organizations like Diversionary Theatre, Lambda Archives of San Diego, FilmOUT San Diego, the San Diego Women’s Chorus, San Diego Gay Men’s Chorus, and San Diego Queer Youth Chorus. Visual and performing arts provide innovative advocacy and community-building palettes where we are empowered to creatively bare out our hearts to find new empathic connections. The turbulent stories of our unique perspectives, vulnerable lives, and heroic movement are worthy of being preserved and showcased. Meanwhile, Pride events around the world not only honor and uphold our history they are celebrations of queer art and culture with huge economic impacts. Just a few years ago, I was told by a local government official that “there is no LGBTQ arts and culture.” An odd thing to stay knowing that government bodies across the country are introducing a record number of anti-LGBTQ bills attempting to erase our history from libraries, our flags from public view, ban drag performances, and even prohibit Prides from happening.
