Artfully Queer is Tasmania’s longest running and biggest annual LGBTQIA+ community art exhibition produced by TasPride and curated by Phoebe Adams. The exhibition is open to all Tasmanian queer creatives with works form a wide variety of creative disciplines. ​
​
The Artfully Queer Exhibition has become an annual cultural barometer for the Tasmanian LGBTIQA+ community, with themes selected to reflect and channel the zeitgeist of the times. This year we find ourselves in concerning times where major western countries have swung politically far to the right. Legal and cultural gains born out of protest, pride and resistance are being eroded or are under existential threat. The theme RESITANCE was chosen for this year’s exhibition.​​​​​​
