LGBTQIA2S+ communities & allies will come together throughout the Appalachian region to teach workshops. These creative arts workshops will help various arts communities get out of our silos and build stronger, more collaborative relationships between LGBTQIA2S+ communities & allies throughout the Appalachian region.”
