The Last Friday of Every MonthSkinfolk: The Society of NonconformistsFor ANYONE drawn to nonconformity—even as a question.We’re building a community shaped by refusal and energized by radical creativity.

APRIL: Robert ColescottStereotype Lab: The Colescott Experiment

Call him a nonconformist, call him a trickster—Robert Colescott used incendiary stereotypes to expose rigid ideas about race and identity, reveling in the shock and our pearl-clutching.

Join artist and writer Sharyll Burroughs for a dialogue lab on the art of stereotypes. Are you willing to say what you’re not supposed to? Step into the collision—where ideas clash and identity is reborn. Stereotype Lab: The Colescott Experiment is a public study that will appear in Burrough’s essay anthology Skinfolk.

Nonconformists reject definition. They live from an inner truth—making us all visible, and connection possible.

RSVP or just show up.
