For everyone who has not seen Cruising the Archive: Wink Wink at the ONE Archives Gallery & Museum in West Hollywood, this is your last weekend to see the show! Hope everyone can get out to the gallery.

In a recent review of the exhibition, Sharon Mizota of the Los Angeles Times said Cruising the Archive was, “an unruly history of queer culture in Los Angeles that is inspiring in its depth and vibrancy.” Read more of Mizota’s post on the Los Angeles Times‘ Culture Monster blog here.
