The new MNjcc Virtual Gallery is digital home for creativity that educates, entertains and expresses shared experiences of humanity.

For Pride Month at the J, the Gallery is pleased to present Blooming. The exhibition centres on work from community members Cee Lavery and Saul Freedman-Lawson exploring trans identities, queerness, Judaism, and childhood.

Cee Lavery is a childcare worker, forest school facilitator, illustrator, comic artist, and sometimes-violinist currently living on unceded traditional land of the Kanien’kehá:ka people, also known as Tiohtià:ke and as Montréal. He is self-taught, with great appreciation for DIY aesthetics/ethos and the work of other outsiders, outcasts, and amateurs.

Saul Freedman-Lawson is an illustrator, babysitter, camp counsellor, and Hebrew school teaching assistant. They write and draw about gender, queerness, bodies, Judaism, kids, and family. His first fancy comic is forthcoming from Old Growth Press. They are in progress.
