2025 Artist Enrichment Grant | (Highlands Heights) $5,000 to tour Somewhere Over the Holler in rural Kentucky. This powerful project celebrates rural queer identities and amplifies voices often silenced by mainstream narratives and patriarchal cultural norms, through a groundbreaking fusion of documentary film, dance, music, drag, burlesque, and movement. This immersive experience will honor the stories of queer and gender-diverse rural residents and assert their visibility and resilience in places where these identities are too often isolated or erased.
