Art of Pride live and in person events are generally open to nude and erotic art. However, because we are using public platforms - Facebook, Instagram and Youtube - those companies have standards and that forbid nudes (particularly penises) and erotic art. :( Violating those standards could lead to Art of Pride and Pride being banned from those platforms. :( This could be a focus of a future show.
This is a joint activity of San Diego Art of Pride and San Diego Pride. We thank Pride for their continued support of cultural events and our community.

SEEKING ARTISTS FOR PRIDE OFFICE DISPLAYS
We are booked several months in advance but are still seeking artists to display their work inside the beautiful Pride Office Building at 3620 30th Street, San Diego. Join us for one of our Saturday receptions or drop by the office during business hours to see the space. Contact John at [email protected] for reception schedule and more information.
About the space:
The San Diego Pride office building is located at 3620 30th Street, central to a arts and entertainment district of restaurants, micro pubs, bistros, theaters, galleries and shops.
It is a stylish business building open 7 days a week from 9 to 5. The rest of the one-story building is occupied by San Diego Pride offices which host a flow of business people, civic leaders and community activists.
Many evenings one might find local civic and political organizations occupying one of the several meeting areas in the building.
We have display area along the two main corridors and into the conference area. It will accommodate approximately 30 medium sized hanging art works. The display area is secured and locked when the building is not in use.
