Fresh Meat Productions is now accepting all sizes of artwork for the Fifth Annual Fresh Meat in the Gallery Exhibition in San Francisco. This year's theme is Riots and Revelations.

• Do you make visual art?
• Are you trans, transgender, transsexual, genderqueer, gender-variant, gender-fabulous?
• Do you want to have thousands of visitors from around the world see your art during San Francisco's Pride month?

Then send us art on the theme of Riots and Revelations that is either:
Artwork of any size that can hang on the wall
(We are unable to exhibit free-standing sculpture, video, or other 3D work. Only wall mountable works will be considered.)

We welcome work from international, incarcerated, professional, emerging and new artists! Your work does not necessarily have to deal with gender. See below for mailing address and submission guidelines.

About the theme: RIOTS AND REVELATIONS
How have riots and revelations been part of your history and how will they shape the future? How do you find peace in a time of war on our bodies and communities? Do you create powerful, exciting, and energizing riots? Are revelations quiet and introspective or publicly celebrated moments, movements, and histories? What are your personal riots and/or revelations? How are communities around the world rising up? What new ways of living are being revealed for the future?

Fresh Meat in the Gallery is an annual exhibition of visual art by transgender and gender-variant artists presented by Fresh Meat Productions. We seek to empower artists, expand the repertoire of original work authentically exploring transgender experience, bring visibility to trans communities, connect trans artists with diverse audiences, create dialogue and build community. Fresh Meat in the Gallery is part of the National Queer Arts Festival and accompanies Fresh Meat 2008, the 7th annual festival of transgender and queer performance, (June 19-22 at Project Artaud Theater in San Francisco). Last year, over 1,500 people attended Fresh Meat in the Gallery.

We look forward to seeing your work!
