Kinship responds to the symposium theme, "How Hard Can It Be?", by celebrating trans artists, whose community has been subjected to an alarming rise in hateful rhetoric and erasure across North America. By centering six trans ceramic artists, this exhibition provides visibility for a community that is both a thriving part of Canadian clay artistry and a central pillar of our 2SLGBTQIA+ family. With this in mind, our Kinship exhibition dates coincide with both the Canadian Clay symposium (March 21 - 23, 2026) and Transgender Day of Visibility (March 31, 2026). In the words of curator Jai Sallay-Carrington:
Community is integral for LGBTQ+ people, and we can argue that the Clay community shares that need and strength in community. The challenges and experiences that bring a powerful sense of connection to each of these communities differ, but the overlap cannot be overlooked. So, when we ask “How Hard Can It Be?” the answer is; hard! But easier with support and people to share in the experiences.
