My works explore the essence of what it is to live, and experience life’s contrasting elements, to create a more interesting union.” - Joe Klaus, exhibiting artist at William Way Get inspired by more of his artwork at joeklaus.com What's ahead: Women's History Month PA Health Needs Assessment Generations Art Exhibition Bearded Ladies Cabaret Queer Health Education Understanding Labs Facebook Twitter Instagram Speaking Out for Equality is an online exhibit produced by the John J. Wilcox Jr. Archives that tells the courageous story of the struggle for LGBT civil rights in the courts and in the streets.   William Way is collecting responses for the 2022 PA LGBTQ Health Needs Assessment. Pennsylvania is home to thousands of LGBTQIA+ residents, and the state has become a leader in measuring disparities impacting our community’s wellness! Since 2015, a growing network of LGBTQIA+ organizations has helped collect data about our community’s health needs and barriers to care. We are asking you to take this year’s survey at bit.ly/2022PANA.   The Bearded Ladies Cabaret present a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see a once-in-a-lifetime true story about gender cannibalism. For four nights in March, you have the chance to see a work-in-progress showing of a new, special treat: Rose: You Are Who You Eat by John Jarboe. Tickets are free, but limited, so if you’d like to see this feast of a performance, make sure to grab yours right away.    Understanding Labs:  The Ins and Outs March 11, Noon - 1:30 PM via Zoom Join William Way's Elder Initiative and the Penn CFAR CAB for a presentation and discussion about understanding lab work for older adults living with HIV.
