Registration is now open for the second workshop in our winter series, Queerer Times and Alternative Futures, facilitated by Hanss Lujan Torres (@haannssl)! 

This workshop explores queer temporality and futurity through collective discussion and shared making. Rooted in 2SQTBIPOC lived and collective experiences, it engages broader timescapes to make sense of the “queerer” times we are all living through. Inspired by texts on temporality and futurity found in Dick’s Lending Library, the workshop invites participants to reflect on how futures are imagined when time is understood outside heteronormative, colonial, and linear frameworks. The workshop creates space for a generative conversation about how time is experienced, what constitutes the present, and what it means to imagine queer, trans, and nonbinary futures. 

Following the discussion, participants will engage in a hands-on collage and drawing activity, using images, texts, and materials to create their own clocks and calendars as speculative timekeeping devices for imagining and building possible futures. Materials will be provided, but participants are encouraged to bring anything they’d like to include in their collages.

Register for the workshop here! Registration is limited to 15 participants.
