WUSSY Mag presents “#StartTalkingHIV: Stories of Southerners Living with HIV Through Art”, a gallery show curated by Atlanta artist and activist, Emily M. Getsay. The goal of the exhibition is to center the views and experiences of those living with HIV in our conversations and art revolving around HIV/AIDS.

We believe just creating conversation can help break stigma, so join us!
