Please join Jeannie Simms for a conversation with some of the subjects photographed in her exhibition at Gallery 263, Same Sex Marriage Portrait Project/Future Archive: Where are they now?, on Friday, December 18th, 6-8pm.
Over the past 6 months, Simms found and photographed some of the first same-sex couples ever to be married in Cambridge and Massachusetts, seeking an answer to the question, “where are they now?” The portraits reflect Simms’ interest in LGBT visual and material culture, and seek to contribute to a broader future archive of images showing the transitional years of rapid social and political change for the LGBT community.
This project was made possible with support from the Cambridge Arts Council.
