Happy midweek, everyone! Summer intern Tori here.

This month, Queer Art introduced the revolutionary “The Illuminations Grant for Black Trans Women Visual Artists.” This $10K grant “sheds light on the under-recognized contributions of Black trans women visual artists and provides critical support to their continuing work.⁣⁣”

This grant is revolutionary not only because it recognizes and supports black trans women and black trans femme artists, but because of the changemakers behind it.
