OUTCRY: Alchemists of Rage

October 8 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

21c Museum Hotel Lexington is thrilled to host a special screening of OUTCRY: Alchemists of Rage, an impactful short documentary film that highlights the power of art to drive social change. On October 8 at 6pm, we will host an in-person screening of the 30-minute film in our Main Gallery, followed by a conversation including the film’s featured participant, Whitney Bradshaw and the film’s director, Clare Major. 

OUTCRY: Alchemists of Rage follows Whitney Bradshaw as she photographs women mid-scream in cathartic group sessions where long-silenced stories conjure rage, sorrow, and joy. An activist and sexual abuse survivor, Whitney uses art to fuel action for women’s rights, culminating in a grassroots fight for abortion access in Ohio. The film offers a visceral rallying cry for the revolutionary power of women’s voices. 

Join us to watch and discuss this powerful film!
