Upcoming Exhibits
Coming June 21st:
OUTwork 2025
Opening Reception 6/21/25 from 3:30 - 6:00 PM
City Lights Gallery presents OUTwork, the 15th annual LGBTQ+ art exhibit, opening on June 21 in conjunction with the Greater Bridgeport Pride celebration. Artists’ reception runs from 3:30-6pm.
OUTwork explores issues of gender, LGBTQ+ life, love and relationships, family, social justice, bias, personal stories and perspectives, pride, current issues of 2025, etc. The intention is to support the greatest possible inclusion and to create a platform for people of diverse backgrounds to meet, exchange ideas, and express their support and respect.
This annual event grew from the inspiration and vision of local artist Ricky Mestre, 13 years of support from City Lights Gallery, the city of Bridgeport and the surge of energy and commitment of the Bridgeport Pride Center, who in recent years became the lead organization of Bridgeport Pride. Congratulations Bridgeport Pride Center!

Joseph Annino, Erika Ayala, Carlos Biernnay, Lila Calvao, Ben Casiano, Andrew Graham, Nicole Koester, Julia Rose Liptak, Mia Lipstick, Isadora Lopez, David Marciniszyn, Ricky Mestre, Ken Normadin, Michelle Pontes, Emery Popick, Daniel Rivera, Daniel Roa, Peter Robinson, Silvester Salcedo, Patrick Webb, Linda Young.
Join us for a day of solidarity and celebration for the LGBTQ+ community and allies.
