On April 30, the Eleanor Roosevelt Gay Straight Alliance (GSA) hosted their second annual “Seeds” Showcase in order to spotlight talents of both the LGBT community and their allies bringing pride to our campus. The showcase and exhibit is based on the proverb, “They tried to bury us, but they didn’t know we were seeds.” This relates to the showcase because students that are a part of the LGBT community sometimes believe that they are put down by society, but because they are “Seeds” they will always grow back even more beautiful.
The types of art that were featured in the showcase were posters, paintings, photography, and crafts. Differing types of performances that students and staff experienced at the showcase were dances, singing, poetry, and spoken word.
