Mission

From 2017 to 2019, HUSH-HUSH provided a platform for emerging queer and trans artists producing experimental work in the Bay Area. As an ever-evolving network of artists working between fields, HUSH-HUSH provided a space to blur genres, take risks, and be strange.

HUSH-HUSH has been on hiatus since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. It might make a comeback soon. We are searching for funding as well as a space to host us in. If you are interested in hosting a HUSH-HUSH at your venue, please reach out!

HUSH-HUSH is organized and curated by writer Brittany Newell and artist Silk Worm.
