A brick? What am I going to do? Mini pieces of art and history that l'm making with casting molds. Each one's a copy of a stonewall brick with my artwork on it, inspired by the Stonewall legacy and our communities resilience. The plan? Drop them around NYC - hide them in corners, parks, random spots - kinda like a city-wide treasure hunt. Each brick tells a story, sparks convo, and hopefully makes someone stop and feel something. I'll also be selling these so you don't need to be in nyc looking for these to get one of your own! But I don't wanna do this alone. I'm tryna team up with powerful voices - brands, orgs, people who care - to make this bigger than just art. I want these bricks to raise awareness, represent the community, and be a reminder that our history is everywhere - not just in museums. Let's make noise. Let's make people look. Let's build something real. One brick at a time One story at a time One city at a time If you're down to collab or know someone who might be, hit me up! Bricks dropping soon More soon...

Queer history isn’t just about what we’ve lost—it’s about what we’ve built. Before Stonewall, before Pride, before mainstream activism, there were secret societies fighting for LGBTQ+ rights in a world that refused to see us. The Mattachine Society (1950) 🏛️ Founded in 1950 by Harry Hay, the Mattachine Society was one of the first gay rights organizations in the U.S. It operated in secrecy because being openly gay at the time meant arrest, job loss, or worse. Their name came from the mattachini, masked jesters from the Renaissance who used performance to critique authority—symbolizing the hidden but powerful voices of queer people. So, what did they accomplish? ⚖️ Fought police entrapment—When gay men were arrested in sting operations, Mattachine provided legal support and fought for their rights. 📢 Created one of the first LGBTQ+ publications—The Mattachine Review spread awareness and connected isolated queer individuals. ⚡ Pushed for visibility—They encouraged LGBTQ+ people to advocate for themselves in public and political spaces. 🚪 Laid the groundwork for later activism—Their fight directly influenced the Gay Liberation Front, Stonewall, and modern LGBTQ+ rights movements. Their logo—a masked figure—represented both secrecy and defiance. I’ve taken that symbol and transformed it into my pottery, making something tangible that honors their legacy. The Daughters of Bilitis (1955) Five years later, in 1955, Phyllis Lyon and Del Martin founded the Daughters of Bilitis (DOB)—the first lesbian civil rights organization in the U.S. Unlike Mattachine, which focused on legal battles, DOB centered around education, support, and fighting the erasure of lesbian identity. What did they achieve? 📖 Published The Ladder, the first national lesbian magazine—At a time when representation was nonexistent, this publication helped lesbians see themselves and find community. 🏳️‍🌈 Created safe spaces—They hosted discussions, social events, and educational programs to combat loneliness and fear. 🛡️ Challenged discrimination—They fought against police harassment, job discrimination, and the medical pathologization of lesbianism. 🔥 Paved the way for feminist and lesbian activism—Their work directly influenced the second-wave feminist movement and the fight for marriage equality. ✨ Queer history is often rewritten or erased, but through my work, I hope to make it permanent. ✨ Drop a 🏳️‍🌈 if you believe these stories should never be forgotten. #QueerHistory #LGBTQIcons #MattachineSociety #DaughtersOfBilitis #QueerArt #QueerPottery

When life feels unstable, artists often keep communities functioning •Harlem rent parties (1920s): neighbors held home concerts to cover rent; musicians played, a hat was passed, and information circulated alongside music. •Savoy Ballroom (opened 1926): one of the first racially integrated dance halls; social dancing doubled as community glue across hard times. •Paradise Garage × GMHC (1982): the club hosted “Showers,” an early AIDS fundraiser, raising tens of thousands for community health. Parties = public health. •ACT UP + Gran Fury (late 1980s): artists turned posters, billboards, and bus ads into an information network when official messaging failed. •Wigstock (from 1984): a free outdoor drag festival that built connection and visibility amid the AIDS crisis. •ABC No Rio (founded 1980): a collectively run art space born from a housing protest; shows, zines, and organizing hub for a struggling Lower East Side. •Ballroom houses (1980s–90s): chosen-family networks that shared health info, hosted benefits, and offered material support alongside culture. In shaky moments, culture and art isn’t extra…it’s infrastructure. #ArtAsInfrastructure #ceramics #CommunityCare #NYCHistory #HarlemRenaissance #Ballroom #AIDSHistory #StreetArt #NightlifeHistory
