Nora Renick Rinehart and Emilie Mulcahey
Star Trek Said Quilts Are Queer Art

Alongside her second year MFA exhibition, Flannel Futures, Nora Renick Rinehart has created a comic/essay entitled, Star Trek Said Quilts are Queer Art: Intentionality and Imagination in the Craft Continuum. Join Renick Rinehart for a dramatic reading of the comic followed by a conversation with fellow artist and Star Trek enthusiast Emilie Mulcahey in which they ponder how craft and queerness overlap with The Final Frontier.
