Friday, August 5, 2016
6:30 to 10pm
[Image Description: 19 people sit around a large square dinner table that is composed of smaller tables. The guests sit in white chairs that have metallic, shiny legs and look towards a man with a bald head and white shirt who is speaking. Each table making the square has a white table cloth covering it. On top of the tables are wine and water glasses, wine and water bottles, platters and bowls of food, and dinner plates. Behind the seated guests, towards the top left, is a projected image of a woman’s hands holding up a rolodex of paper to the viewer. Towards the middle top and middle right, paintings and photographs on the wall are visible.]
As part of Elia's Alba's ongoing project The Supper Club, The 8th Floor hosted Alba's The Supper Club: After Orlando, which brought close to 20 LGBTQ visual artists of color to discuss sanctuary, queerness, and intersectionality.
