Don’t Tell My Parents About This Show
A Solo Exhibition by Harvey Tolentino Doniego

If you are reading this, you have been invited into Harvey Tolentino Doniego’s secret life.

This exhibition gathers cherished memories and moments of liminality—thoughts, prayers, hopes, and desires. Some were never meant to be seen, or at least not by those who raised them to imagine something different. In sharing them, they ask for quiet understanding. What exists here is held between the work and its viewer.

This exhibition acknowledges who they have become—in spite of, because of, and inspired by their parents. Artery is transformed into a space where hidden fragments of the self can exist freely, without apology.

At its core, the work introduces their evolving “Q’we’re theory”—an ongoing body of exhibition and prose reflecting on the liminality, complexity, and community of being q***r. Once a word used to mark the othered—the odd and alternative—q***r is reclaimed here as camp, creative, and communal.

Exhibition Dates: April 9 – May 9, 2026

Artist Talk + Open Mic

You only live once—let’s live in a world with more art, poetry, and music.

There is no set theme, but you’re encouraged to share work that explores identity, taking up space, and the processes of learning and unlearning.

🎤 Poetry, spoken word, and acoustic music are all welcome (minimal tech required).

This is Harvey’s first open mic, and they’re calling in the creative, the campy, and the courageous to take up space in ways that feel empowering—for the self and for the soul.

Priority performance spots will be given to those who self-identify as part of marginalized communities.

Come curious. Leave expanded.
