Q***r Conscience 2026
On view until September 4

If you haven’t already, come by this week during our open hours to see this beautiful collection of photographs.

“The call for this exhibition reminds us that q***r rights are under attack unlike ever before. This year, Q***r Conscience is positioned within this tension, seeking to push back against these forces while affirming our lived and embodied truths through photography. The works gathered here do precisely that: they affirm and they resist-formally, politically, affectively, and poetically.” - Conor Moynihan Conor Moynihan Bonacossa (QC 2026 juror)

Opening Reception: Saturday, June 6, 2026 - 5PM-7PM

The Image Flow invites photographic artists closely tied to the LGBTQIA2+ community to submit work to our 4th Annual juried photography exhibition, Q***r Conscience 2026.

We probably don’t need to inform you that q***r rights are under attack, unlike ever before. Q***r Conscience seeks to push back against these forces and affirm our own truths through the photographic medium.

In this juried exhibition, set to coincide with Pride month, we ask q***r artists to express their resistance and share their truest q***r journeys with us. Join us in celebrating our community and our creativity with a clear conscience.

In 2008, Stuart Schwartz founded The Image Flow with one initial goal: to provide high-quality photographic printing services to Marin County – because, in the words of Stuart, “it’s not a photograph until it’s a print.” The Image Flow aims to celebrate photography in all its forms and to provide a local hub for photographers of all levels to create work, exchange ideas, and innovate the medium of photography.

“We believe in the power of the printed image, building a community of creatives, and being a space to come together to celebrate art.” - Page Sullivan, Front Desk & Digital Media Manager

Join us to celebrate Between Garden & Wild, an exhibition of photographs by Kimberley Carr Harmon .photo

"In a world defined by busyness, I choose to wander. I slow down, pause, and notice the quiet beauty that is so often passed by. My photography grows from these moments of stillness, when nature reveals itself not as a backdrop, but as a presence to be felt." - Kimberley Carr Harmon
