David Zwirner Gallery. We will be at the opening of this show, Alice Neel in the Queer World. The painting Alice Neel did of Annie in 1982, now worth over a million dollars, is on display in the gallery and on the cover of the catalogue.
This book store event is to celebrate the new edition of “Coming Out Like a Porn Star.” Our book Assuming the Ecosexual Position will also be available for sale and we’ll sign and decorate copies sold. Annie will be “in conversation” with Jiz Lee and Dr. Carol Queen. Beth will be directing a documentation video for the event.
Artist and film director, Shu Lea Chang, is traveling the USA with a remastered 35 mm print of her incredible first feature film, Fresh Kill. Right after watching the film, Beth and Annie are invited to go onstage with Shu Lea to “be in conversation.”

We are in West Virginia where we are conducting election research. We are pleased to note there are hardly any Trump signs.
As California burns, communities feel the heat. 'Playing with Fire: an Ecosexual Emergency,' a 75-minute eco-documentary produced by the E.A.R.T.H. Lab SF, explores the entwined fates of climate change and social-justice. Spurred by the devastating wildfires of 2020, artist-filmmakers Sprinkle and Stephens explore their community, amplifying marginalized voices to spark hope and action for a more just future.
We will be doing a ritual performance with E.A.R.T.H. Lab SF colleagues, friends, and supporters to lend our energy to protecting our freedom of expression, GLBTQ and BIPOC rights and the Earth's environment.
Join us for a two-hour online community listening session. The Board and staff incorporate feedback from these sessions into planning our upcoming programs, ensuring that E.A.R.T.H. Lab SF remains responsive to the needs and aspirations of the communities and artists we serve. This process enables our artistic and environmental programming to stay relevant, engaging, and inclusive. We will develop and use online and print surveys to collect feedback.
