SUMMARY:Come (OUT) As You Are Poetry Night
DESCRIPTION:Join us at Woman Made Gallery on Friday\, June 20 at 6 PM for Come (Out) As You Are\, a vibrant Pride Month showcase celebrating queer joy\, identity\, and radical self-expression. This special evening will feature eight poets and writers sharing powerful\, original work that honors the many ways we come out\, show up\, and speak our truths. \nCurated with a focus on uplifting the voices of UIC students\, this event invites the community to gather in celebration of authenticity\, resilience\, and queer creativity. From bold spoken word to tender storytelling\, the night will hold space for reflection\, connection\, and visibility. \nFree and open to the public—come witness and celebrate the beauty of queer voices in full bloom. \nHosted by Jae Green and Le’Trice Buckingham. \nAbout the Juror:  Le’Trice Buckingham is a Chicago based multi-disciplinary artist whose practice weaves together visual art\, storytelling\, and poetry to subvert and conjure. Rooted in the transformative power of art\, her work engages with ancestral memory and the fluid intersections of history and imagination. Through bold abstract imagery and layered symbolism she creates spaces for reflection\, resistance\, and reimagining. As a storyteller\, Buckingham draws from oral traditions\, folklore\, and lived experiences\, infusing her narratives with rhythm\, movement\, and historical resonance. Her work has been featured in literary journals\, exhibitions\, and community-based art initiatives\, and she continues to cultivate spaces for creative expression through Art Conjure\, a collective dedicated to Black storytelling and visual artistic conjuration. \n
