Reminder: Hand Holding Day at Contemporary Jewish Museum @ Sun Jul 24 9am - 5pm (queerthingssf@gmail.com)

more details » Hand Holding Day at Contemporary Jewish Museum It's time for a show of hands this Sunday, July 24 at the CJM as we celebrate Hand Holding Day! In the aftermath of a widely publicized incident in our galleries in which a contract security guard, acting in his individual capacity, told two women holding hands that it was not allowed,* the Museum demonstrates its ongoing commitment to diversity by encouraging visitors to come stroll hand in hand through the galleries no matter who you love and to celebrate the LGBT families in our community.* The morning features several previously scheduled activities just for families with young children in conjunction with the current Seeing Gertrude Stein: Five Stories exhibition including special art-making activities, tours of the exhibition, and performances by the SF Lesbian/Gay Freedom Band, the Voices Lesbian Choral Ensemble, and Lesbian/Gay Chorus of San Francisco. The LGBT Family Morning of Stein takes place 9 AM to 12 PM and is appropriate for young children (preschool through nine years old) and their families. All families are welcome, and youth 18 and under are always free. Later that day, loved ones can hold hands as they enjoy a special free performance by actress Laura Sheppard entitled Paris Portraits: Stories of Picasso, Matisse, Gertrude Stein and their Circle, her one-woman show based on the new memoir of Gertrude Stein by Harriet Levy from Heyday Books. The 30-minute performance starts at 2 PM and is followed by a conversation with Sheppard and historians Frances Dinkelspiel and Fred Rosenbaum.
