A+D Gallery's 3rd Annual Summer Residency

The Ladydrawers Comics Collective is a group of women, men, trans, and non-binary gender folk who research, perform, and publish comics and texts about our culture. This summer's residency invites new collaborators in to help us look at sex, money, race, and gender through a series of pedagogical workshops, performances, live mural-making, interactive art, and of course, comics, amongst other illuminating endeavors.

We're starting things off with a bang with our Opening Night Extravaganza! Join us June 27 from 5-8pm for a lively evening of revelry with Blizzard Babies, Gretchen Hasse, Lyra Hill, Elliott Junkyard, Fran Syass, Ever Mainard, Carolina Mayorga, Katie McVay, Yasmin Nair, Elizabeth White, Polly Yates, and random assorteds from the Ladydrawers crew. Comedy! Food! Drink! Art! AWESOME!

Make sure to check our website for further information on the workshop series.

As always, all events at A+D are free and open to the public. Averill and Bernard Leviton A+D Gallery, 619 S. Wabash, Chicago, IL
