Weekly Message from Our Director & CEO, Stephan Jost

Hello everyone,

We are getting close to the end of the year – and there is still one more exhibition being launched before we get there. Casa Susanna, currently being installed on the main floor, opens on December 23 and features photographs from the mid-1950s to the late 1960s created by a network of crossdressers who found refuge in the Catskills region of New York State. 250 images – the vast majority from our collection – provide insight into this period, as well as its connection to the lives of trans and crossdressing people today.

The volume of installations these past few months has been incredibly high and tremendously successful – thank you to all teams involved in creating such beautifully installed exhibits for our public. I know that thousands of people will be enjoying the AGO over the next several weeks. Bringing art and people together is what we do so well. Thank you all!

Take care and best holiday wishes to all,

Stephan
