ALT Image is a promotional poster for a film -- the title of the film is in white font on the image and I reads "Sean Dorsey Dance: Dreaming Trans & Queer Futures". The image shows 4 dancers dancing outside on a graffiti-covered path on the side of a tall hill. Behind them in the distance are the tall buildings of downtown San Francisco. The dancers are all wearing elaborate couture ball gowns, and as they spin, the fabric dances and is lifted into the air. Along the edges of the photograph are 14 film laurels, each with the name of a different international film festival that this film has been screened at.
🤟Happy National Deaf LGBTQ Week! 🤟
Our Artistic Director Sean Dorsey is Trans and Hard-of-hearing and shares:
"National Deaf LGBTQ Week is a project of the *amazing* @DeafQueer Resource Center. Get to know them!" #DeafLGBTQWeek#Trans

ALT Photo shows Sean signing "I love you," and smiling at the camera. He wears glasses and has short brown hair, wears a blue v-neck tshirt, and the ear hook of his hearing aid can be seen coiling over his right ear. Behind him are palm trees and other green plants, in front of a dark red wall.
