Picture + Panel: Lies the TV Told Me with Štěpánka Jislová and Sofia Szamosi.
Sep 08, 2025, 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM
285 Washington St, Somerville, MA 02143, USA

This month, Picture + Panel questions the narratives that shape modern love and self-image with Štěpánka Jislová and Sofia Szamosi. Join us to deconstruct the stories we've been sold about relationships, bodies, and desire as these creators chart a path toward self-acceptance and connection.
