February 12 Art Opening:
Yesterday: Today: Tomorrow

Look for the 30-foot tall hot pink presence in front of Portland's Q Center on Friday, February 12th at 6pm, and you'll find big, bold and provocative opening of Yesterday:Today:Tomorrow, the month-long celebration of art through the lens of Gertrude Press.

Featuring eight visual artists or collectives whose work has been published in the journal, this show considers "Queerness"—an identity in constant flux—and its themes. Join us »

How Gay Is That?

And now for something completely different... Gertrude goes SUPER GAY for its 15th issue. In this, our Gayest Issue Ever, we are seeking writing and visual art that explores, celebrates, or subverts all of the fabulous queer stereotypes. Whether it's a Sunday School teacher turned drag detective at night or anything set on a lesbian cruise ship, is up to you. Submit online »
