THE CENTER WELCOMES GENDERQUEER MUSICIAN CHRIS PUREKA FOR FINAL PERFORMANCE IN THE CENTERPIECE

The Centerpiece

To finish off The Center’s inaugural season of The Centerpiece, a queer arts & culture series, genderqueer musician Chris Pureka will take the stage on Saturday, Oct. 12 at 8 p.m. for a free show open to the public.

Pureka, who has shared stages with the likes of The Lumineers and Ani DiFranco, is an established musician whose latest release – Chimera II – is an expression of transition. The name refers to a three-headed creature of Greek mythology. It’s also a scientific term describing an organism derived from two genetically distinct types of cells. Pureka’s life, built on independence and intimacy, translates stunningly to her music.

Currently wrapping up its first season, The Centerpiece is a thoughtfully assembled queer arts & culture series for Nevada’s LGBTQ and allied communities. Boasting a broad array of subject matter and artistic medium, each Centerpiece will offer a diverse yet accessible glimpse into the compelling and often complex world in which we exist.

The winter/spring season of The Centerpiece, kicking off in December with a distinguished lineup of performers, will be announced soon.
