Timing	03 July 2025	03 July 2025	Liverpool ▼ , Open Eye Gallery ▼

Do you have something to share IRL? Share with me @ Open Eye Gallery. To end my residency in Liverpool and to continue the theme of sharing knowledge we want to offer 5 spaces to wonderful people who for 10 mins can present and take questions on creative /socially related actions they are involved in organising / making in Liverpool

Aay will start the evening by sharing the short film 'Andrew a Strong Courageous Warrior' (2016), followed by a brief Q&A about the work and their current project.

If you have a solo/group project or artwork, a call to action or a short film or performance under 10 minutes long, we want to hear from you! We are interested in things that have not yet been shown, works in progress or things you would like to invite people to - meet up groups, calls to action etc.

To join us or sign up to present, email: info@aliparoto.com with your name, phone number and a short description, plus any links to your work. We have a projector and a screen which you can use if needed.

We welcome participants from the LGBTQIA+ community and allies, who have an intersectional feminist approach, to love and inclusiveness. Bring friends and lovers - all bodies welcome!

All meet up sessions are free and refreshments are provided. If you want to come but money is tight, we are happy to cover transport costs (keep your tickets & receipts - Aay will have cash to refund). The space is fully wheelchair accessible. Alcohol is being served in this space.
