 6:00pm- Visual Arts Showcase\n7:30pm- Videos and 
 Performances\n\nsickcollective.org \n\nGiving a definition to gender 
 variance is tricky. As is defining chronic illness. People tell themselves 
 “I am not sick enough or queer enough or whatever enough” to identify 
 these ways and this hesitance stops us from forming communities and 
 connections. We isolate because our experiences are not talked about or 
 validated and our unique and varied lives don’t lend themselves easily to 
 group formation. Definitions are inherently constraining which is why many 
 gender variant and chronically ill folks resist identity categories that 
 often hew to normative binaries. With this in mind, SICK will bring folks 
 together to make beautiful complicated art about our intersecting 
 experiences as gender variant and sick people. \n\nCo-curated by Cheena 
 Marie Lo and Rik Haber\n\nCo-sponsored with support from The Sisters of 
 Perpetual Indulgence, Rainbow Grocery: A worker owned Cooperative, Fabulosa 
 Fest (http://fabulosa.org/) and The Queer Cultural Center\n
