SUMMARY:Our Living Record at Revolve Gallery
DESCRIPTION:A multimedia exhibit honoring queer and trans archives\, memory\, and resistance \nAsheville\, NC – Our Living Record\, a new exhibition from Southern Equality Studios – – the art program of The Campaign for Southern Equality\, on view starting July 10 through August 17\, 2025 at Revolve Gallery (821 Riverside Dr. Asheville\, NC 28801). This vibrant and deeply personal show features artwork from Southern LGBTQ+ community members and allies who explore preserving queer memory in the face of cultural erasure. \nThe exhibition includes photography\, sculpture\, projection\, ephemera\, and participatory archival interactive installations. Each piece reflects how personal objects\, imagery\, and memories connect to the broader story of LGBTQ+ resilience\, resistance\, and joy. \n“Queer and trans histories are often fragmented or excluded from dominant narratives\,” says curator Liz Williams. “Our Living Record asks: what happens when we tell our stories ourselves—through our photos\, our letters\, our zines\, our everyday rituals? This exhibition is a gathering of those fragments. A way to say: we were here\, we are here and we will sustain and remain.” \nFeatured artists include:\nLenny Kyriakoulis\, Kass Patterson \, Daniel Simone\, Crain Cutler\, Eduardo Moraes de Oliveira Barbosa\, Amanda Simons\, Lindsay Jones\, and Jeannie Regan \nThe exhibition also includes community-sourced materials\, family snapshots\, protest signs\, and objects from queer everyday life. An Archival Activation Event will take place on July 30\, featuring storytelling\, readings\, an interactive archive activation for WNC LGBTQIA+ Archive Project. \nArtists and community members were asked to submit personal photos\, letters\, or historical ephemera that could be projected onto them during their portrait session—creating an image that literally places history on the body. Each participant also sat for a filmed interview sharing why their items matter\, what stories need to be preserved\, and what message they want to pass on to future generations. \nOur Living Record is supported by Southern Equality Studios\, a project of the Campaign for Southern Equality. Revolve Gallery is located at 821 Riverside Drive #179 in Asheville’s River Arts District. Admission is free and open to the public during gallery hours. \nFor interviews\, press images\, or event information\, please contact Liz Williams at liz@southernequality.org.

SUMMARY:Becomyth - We Begin In Chaos - Night 1: Book of Invocation
DESCRIPTION:Night 1 | The Book of Invocation\nThe opening chapter of the Becomyth trilogy sets the stage with a theatrical meditation on the chaos of beginnings—where nothing is certain\, and everything is possible. Against the backdrop of a world on the brink\, two original creation myths converge\, tracing the fragile yet forceful movements that bring something into being from nothing at all. The Book of Invocation beckons us to the edge of the unknown and invites us to step across. \nABOUT THE SERIES \nBecomyth: We Begin in Chaos is a performance art project created by Adam J. N. Keene and Langston Kelly that delves into the nature of beginnings—why they challenge us\, why they matter\, and what transformation takes place in the act of starting anew. Drawing from global creation myths—some of the oldest maps we have for navigating the unknown—Becomyth investigates “chaotic beginnings” as a form of mythological sensemaking: a tool for navigating uncertainty\, transformation\, and potential. \nBlending music\, myth\, and theatrical storytelling\, Keene and Kelly invite audiences on a cosmic journey where ancient stories are reborn and new myths take root. Each evening in the three-part series presents original performances inspired by global creation stories—fusing dreamlike worlds with powerful archetypes to ask: What does it mean to begin? And who do we become in the process?

SUMMARY:RAD Comedy featuring Jeremy Alder
DESCRIPTION:Every Weekend Modelface Comedy brings you the best comedians from all over the country. This week we are excited to have Jeremy Alder! \nHomeschooled in the heart of Texas by fundamentalist missionary parents with a penchant for conspiracy theories\, Jeremy’s childhood was anything but conventional. Steeped in a world of alternative facts and fervent beliefs\, he learned early on to find the humor in life’s absurdities. \nNow married with children of his own\, Jeremy’s material delves into the trials and tribulations of growing up homeschooled\, the complications of religion\, the mysteries of marriage\, the chaos of parenting\, and the existential crisis of aging—all with a healthy dose of skepticism and silliness\, dry wit and charm. \nJeremy headlines comedy clubs and bars around the country and has opened for several nationally touring acts\, including Demitri Martin\, Russell Howard\, Tom Papa\, Aparna Nancherla\, Nicole Byer\, and Chad Daniels. He has been a featured performer at numerous comedy festivals\, including Laughing Skull Comedy Festival\, SF Sketchfest\, Big Sky Comedy Festival (Best of Fest)\, Asheville Comedy Festival\, and Cleveland Comedy Festival (Best of Fest). \nJeremy’s Dry Bar Comedy special\, “Purity Pants”\, is now on YouTube and has generated over 7 million views on social media. His debut album\, “Almost A Grown Man”\, is streaming now. \nages 18+\nDoors at 6:30pm\, show at 7pm \nTickets $15 advance\, $18 day of
