Nick Vaughan & Jake Margolin are Houston-based interdisciplinary artists creating an ongoing series of fifty installations made in response to little-known pre-Stonewall queer histories from each state. This multi-decade endeavor draws from recent groundbreaking academic work, the artists’ own archival research, and significant time spent learning from and collaborating with local LGBTQ community members.

Nick & Jake founded Rendezvous Center for Art a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that supports interdisciplinary artwork that explores the rich diversity of queer experiences.
