| 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM | Exhibition Celebration for Queer Love: Affection and Romance in Contemporary Art
Join the Lehman College Art Gallery at an opening for the exhibition that will be on view at the Lehman College Art Gallery from Valentine's day through April 28.
Queer Love: Affection and Romance in Contemporary Art presents paintings and photographs that illuminate both individual and universal stories of vulnerability, tenderness, and desire in the LGBTQIA community.
The exhibition, which gathers the work of almost 50 artists, opens in two New York City galleries in February 2023−Lehman College Art Gallery in the Bronx from February 14 to April 23 and La MaMa Galleria in Downtown Manhattan, from February 18 to April 6. Each venue offers works that explore the power and significance of intimate queer familial, romantic, and sexual relationships.
From cheerful, romantic expressions of love to depictions of non-traditional nuclear families, the artwork of these LGBTQIA artists highlights the bond between them as art creators, and those with whom they have the closest ties. The LGBTQIA artists often move from celebrating their love to proclaiming a place for queer people within a larger society. Lushly beautiful, their art creates a series of nuanced and reflective, but largely positive narratives, and love’s transformative impact on both the human experience and the artistic process.

| 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM | The New York Latin American Art Triennial 2019: Progressive Transition
Progressive Transition explores the action and effect of moving from one state to another. More broadly, the project shows the drive towards transformation in the arts. The artists’ need to “feel part of something” that can likewise be recognized and defined by others will be explored within the exhibition. The work on view represents the artistic transition seen against a landscape of societal progress. The project highlights cultural exchange and, at its core, examines the implications of transition on an evolving Latin American culture.

| 12:30 PM - 2:00 PM | The Women's Studies Program Third Fall Lecture Series Presentation
The Women's Studies Program Third Fall Lecture Series presents "Joan Miller's Choreographies of Black Study at Lehman College" by Charmian Wells, Ph.D., Adjunct Assistant Professor, Dept. of Music, Multimedia, Theatre & Dance. This talk will examine Joan Miller's signature solos, Pass Fe White (1970) and Homestretch (1972), in the context of her work establishing the dance program at Lehman College (1970) and within the 1960/70s' student movements more broadly. The solos "read" the desire to embody idealized, feminine whiteness in a critique of structures for accessing national belonging: marriage, celebrity, and education. Performing her choreography as a form of black study (Moten and Harney 2013), Miller's work affirmed the capacity to desire differently, provoking considerations of other terms for be(long)ing in the world.
