After graduating with a B.A. in Art History in 2012\,​ she moved to NYC to immerse herself in ​non binary ​and feminist discourse. From that passion Posture developed and officially launched in Fall 2013 as a platform to support creatives and further feminist and lgbtqi+allied visibility. When she is not writing or editing\, she enjoys going on personal photo shoots around the city and taking in as much art as possible.\n \nBilly Miller is an artist/curator/publisher/musician/bad-ass based in NYC. His writing has appeared in publications such as BUTT\, Index\, VICE\, Little Joe\, Revel\, and others. His artwork has been exhibited internationally at galleries and cultural institutions such as PS1 MoMA\, Andrew Edlin Gallery\, Team Gallery\, D’Amelio Terras Gallery\, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts\, and others\, and he has curated numerous exhibitions and film screenings at venues such as The Mix Festival\, The Fringe Festival and the White Cubicle Gallery London\, Exile Gallery Berlin\, Invisible Exports Gallery NYC\, 80WSE\, the Queer Biennial LA\, and many others.

Rainbow Book Fair is open to the public\, with book discounts and giveaways. \n  \n  \n  \n
