On view at SOMArts between June 7–29, the Queer Cultural Center (@qcc_sf) presents the collaborative mural, “In Solidarity: Queer and Trans Artists for a Free Palestine” as part of their 27th Annual National Queer Arts Festival. BLOOM Collective and xtal Azul are inviting community members to stand in solidarity with Palestine, as there can be no “business as usual” during Pride Month while the genocide continues in Gaza.
“In Solidarity: Queer and Trans Artists for a Free Palestine” affirms that queer and trans liberation are fundamentally intertwined with Palestinian liberation, Indigenous liberation, and global land back movements. This collaborative mural offers space to gather in solidarity and mourning to remember, honor, and call the names of Palestinian martyrs.
