is
an interdisciplinary arts project that builds Queer community
between Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender people of all
ages through the creation of theatrical performances, paintings,
new media works, photography, video narratives, storytelling,
and poetry.
Members
of the queer community have joined project founder, Frank Pietronigro,
and other professional San Francisco Bay Area artists for ongoing
Intergeneration Creative Workshops. During these meetings participants
engage in dialogue about issues of aging and generation stereotyping,
the challenges of building queer community and intergeneration
mentoring. The participants use such discussion to guide them
in the creation of new collaborative works of art that will be
presented free to the public during Gay Pride Month Festivities
in June of each year, through the Intergeneration Performance
Series, anthologies, videos, and Web site.
