Ignition

Hetrick-Martin Institute: New Jersey provides supportive services to LGBTQ Youth ages 13-21. With it's main NJ location at 550 Broad St. in Newark, Artist in Residence Barbara Bickart, facilitated the Queer Youth Art Collective to produce the work in this show: "IGNITION" - experimental work in self-portraiture. Generously funded by the Newark Arts ArtStart Grant, HMI: NJ youth members engaged in process-based art-making that explored expression and identity.

Please join us for an Open Studio and bear witness to the work of the LGBTQ youth in Northern New Jersey.
