QueerWise, an LGBTQIA+ multigenerational writing collective and performance group based in Los Angeles, presents "The Ache For Home," a video presentation of heartfelt stories from formerly homeless/unhoused individuals in and around West Hollywood. Developed through a mentorship program facilitated by QueerWise members and funded through an arts grant from the City of West Hollywood, citizens-turned-writers share inspirational stories from those glamorous streets and sidewalks, ranging from soaring self-acceptance to narratives of truth-telling defeats.
