Queer Zine Art Show

From Milo Miller:
The Queer Zine Archive Project (QZAP) in conjunction with the Milwaukee LGBT Film Festival and Rhizome Space celebrates QZAP's third year with a film screening and Queer Zine Art Show on Friday, June 22nd in Milwaukee, WI. The 7pm film screening at Woodland Pattern Book Center (720 E Locust St) features queer zine pioneer Bruce La Bruce's "No Skin off My Ass" (16mm on DVD, b&w/sound, 73 min., 1991). Tickets are $2. This seminal and sweet queer punk romance features a Karen Carpenter-loving gay hairdresser who falls helplessly in love with a stray skinhead who he invites into his home. Kicking off after the screening at 8:30pm, the gallery show at Rhizome Space (3172 Bremen St) lifts art from the pages of phenomenal queer zines by artists Miss Schnookum, Lane McKiernan, Cookie Tuff, Sina Shamsavari, Rachael House, Larry Bob, and more.
