Gay Place

Gender Unbound is seeking trans and intersex artists for this year's fest. (Art by Drew Riley)

It's still Pride month over here and the celebrations aren't showing any sign of slowing. Most notably, Austin Pride hosts their annual Stonewall Celebration and Rally on Wednesday to honor the riots responsible for kick-starting the gay liberation movement. Beto supporters will be on-site at the Capitol to register voters and answer questions, too! Cinephiles should pencil in tonight's screening of the gay cult-classic Valley of the Dolls as Austin Film Society's annual LGBTQ fundraiser (raising cash for the Kind Clinic). Also, the Mahogany Project debuts their latest work Friday night. Lost Boys tells the story of "a black gay boy growing up in a straight white world," says co-creator Jeaux Anderson Jr. Like their creations past, this performance features a well-curated mash-up of music, poetry, and art to tell their stories. And FYI: Gender Unbound, the trans and intersex art festival put on by Drew Riley, is looking for artist submissions for this year's fest on Sept. 29-30. Interested? Visit www.genderunbound.org to learn more. Stay prideful, beauties!
