Streets, Sex, and Survival: The Zine

Explore 'Streets, Sex, and Survival: A District Defined,' our evocative photography exhibit from June and July,  in a new digital format: the zine. This compelling and first-of-its-kind exhibit encapsulated the essence of the Meatpacking District during the 80s and 90s, and this digital zine delves into interviews with featured photographers and LGBTQ+ activists and historians while offering an abridged and important history of Meatpacking. 

The artists who captured the incredible images featured at 401 intricately weaved together the tapestry of street life, intimate narratives, and sheer resilience that defined our community. In celebrating this historic period, we've compiled this zine, showcasing the photographers' diverse talents. Immerse yourself in our district's captivating journey and be a part of the soulful evolution of a neighborhood.
