DESCRIPTION:This is the last picture day event for the first year of Queerbook project. Everyone from the LGBTQIA+ community is welcome to have their portrait taken to be included in the project. \nQueerbook is a cyanotype print portrait series created by Daniel Cavanaugh. Reminiscent of school portraits\, somewhere between documentation and representation\, the series is attempts to offer the LGBTQIA+ community an opportunity to present as themselves and honor each other.

So far throughout the year\, over 120+ people have sat for the Queerbook portrait series\, the Class of 2024-2025. \nPlease join us at the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division for this picture day on April 12\, 2025 from 3 to 6pm and sit for your portrait. All are welcome\, as time permits.  \nA selection of the series is currently on display at the Bureau as part of a group exhibition entitled\, What Are You Looking At? \n
