About SHEER

There is enough pressure to mold ourselves into who society believes we should be while SHEER encourages freedom of expression and celebrating ourselves unapologetically. The word “SHEER” is a play on transparency and being seen. You’re free to exist in all of your nuance and complexities and explore the identity that resonates best with you. Not a label, stereotype, or the expectation of others, you’re free to be human. SHEER sits at the intersection of arts, culture, and social justice providing a multicultural platform for creatives of color to represent their identities on their own terms whether influenced by their cultures or manifesting new and authentic ways of expression.
