This event features speakers living with HIV who are working to end HIV criminalization through legislative change\, activism\, art\, and community support. \nA visual art show featuring Indy-based artist Contonnia Turner\, Jr. and photographer/digital artist Todd Fuqua will provide a backdrop for the discussion. Contonnia Turner\, Jr. is a talented young Black Hoosier with multiple layers of intersecting identity who creates artwork that reflects who he is physically\, mentally\, and spiritually. Todd Fuqua is an Indianapolis-based artivist (activism through art) who started a social movement called CelebrateUU\, building on the concept of HIV Undetectable=Untransmittable (U=U). \nExplore the exhibit and interact informally with artists beginning at 5:30. The Talk will begin at 6:15 moderated by Terrell Parker and will include HIV Modernization Movement Chair Dr. Carrie Foote\, and Co-Chair Mark Anthony Hughes.

Artists from INFiber and Akomo Ntoso have partnered across guilds to share ideas and expose each other to new points of view\, techniques\, and ways of doing. Their work will be displayed for the public to interpret and during a Trail Talk session at the Phoenix Theater\, fiber artists and actors with the production Alabaster will join in conversation to discuss art as a tool for healing\, growth\, and change. \nDoors open at 5:30pm to view the exhibit with a panel discussion occurring from 6:30-8pm. \nVisit the exhibit from Nov. 4 through Dec. 23 (Tues. – Fri.\, 1-4pm) at the Phoenix Theatre Cultural Center. \nA partnership between INFiber\, Akoma Ntoso Modern Quilt Guild of Central Indiana\, and Phoenix Theatre Cultural Center. \nQuestions? Contact 317-690-3851 or acoconnell@comcast.net. \nThis event is currently scheduled to occur in-person. Register for the Trail Talk session by Nov. 4 and note this event will adhere to prevailing local guidance on COVID-19.
