To quote Christeene, one of their favorite drag queens, Patric believes that “art is a situation we all have on the inside, kicking like a little pony, all the time.” Patric believes in the power and necessity of the arts—to better understand ourselves and others; to heal what is broken in our communities and societies; and to wake up from the slumbers of modern life and make some noise together. They are committed to fostering cultures of creation that push back against systems of oppression and imagine new ways (which are often old ways) of being and working together.
