City in a Garden: Queer Art and Activism in Chicago

City in a Garden: Queer Art and Activism in Chicago is an intergenerational group exhibition that highlights Chicago’s essential, yet often underacknowledged, role in the story of queer art and activism. The exhibition examines this history from the mid-1980s, when activists radically mobilized in response to the US government’s disastrous handling of the AIDS crisis. In this moment of change, activists reclaimed the historically pejorative epithet “queer” as a liberatory term, encompassing all who purposefully deviate from heteronormative society. Drawn from the MCA’s collection and other local collections, City in a Garden follows this paradigm shift in LGBTQ+ history by bringing together work from over 30 artists and collectives working in Chicago from the 1980s to the present.

Pride in the Pour: Celebrating Global LGBTQ+ Winemakers

The history of wine is often narrated through generational dynasties, stoic family names, and long-held, frequently rigid, traditions. It's a world that, until recently, rarely celebrated—or even acknowledged—diversity. Yet, beneath the surface of the world’s most celebrated regions, a quiet but profound revolution has been brewing. Today, a wave of dynamic, openly LGBTQ+ winemakers and winery owners are not just claiming their space in the cellar; they are redefining quality, challenging conventional wisdom, and crafting some of the most exciting and authentic wines on the planet.

Modernism Week: It’s A Vibe!

If you were a child of the 70s in Southern California, you will remember the anointed “Plumber to the Stars” – Jack Stephan – “Plumbing and heating problems?

Can LGBTQ Women Get Sober and Stay Sober for Life?

Recovery isn’t easy. It’s a word that conjures up hard work, honesty, and maybe a bit of fear. But for LGBTQ women, the journey to sobriety often holds extra layers. The risks are real—higher rates of substance use, greater mental health struggles, and a lack of spaces that genuinely feel welcoming. It’s no secret that LGBTQ women face unique hurdles in both getting and staying sober. And here’s why that needs to change: empowering LGBTQ women with the tools and support they need for lifelong sobriety is about creating a future where everyone gets to be their best, healthiest, most authentic selves.

ALASKA: The Last Frontier

Alaska is unique – offering incredible beauty and variety all in one state! And you can easily get a sampling of the Last Frontier with Celebrity Cruises itineraries. When to travel? Summer! So, when my birthday rolled around and my husband asked what I’d like to do this year, I said “a cruise to Alaska.” Cruises are a great way to see Alaska’s coastal mountains, glaciers, marine wildlife, and towns. Day tours and excursions get you away from the crowds and into the real Alaska you came to see. But taking these tours may require some extra effort—and money. After all, many of Alaska's most dramatic sights and wildlife can be accessed only by plane or boat. But I am here to tell you that it is well worth the investment in your travel experience.

Scarlet Envy is Making Life Sparkle

August 23rd, West Hollywood was a buzz. Katy Perry was set to take the stage at the newly christened Beaches Tropicana nightclub in the center of the gayborhood. The line to get in continued around the block, even though tickets were sold out. As the lights dimmed and the crowd went wild, it was clear that there was another diva set to take the stage that night. The question was, would she bring the drama? She did. Scarlet Envy took center stage to thunderous applause as she launched into the debut of “Rain in Hollywood,” the title song of her new EP. With textures of Madonna, a mix of synth-pop, and a melody that haunts for days, she gave Katy a run for her money. This is just one more peak for this drag artist, who has had a year in the spotlight. Not only did she compete in her third iteration of Drag Race, but she penned and published her first book of poetry She’s A Poet, debuted her new cabaret “Bad Advice”, released her new EP, and set foot on her 36-city tour…all while looking fabulous and
