Founded in 1991 as the LGBTIC, the caucus was formed by a group of art educators concerned with the isolation,invisibility, discrimination, and prejudice that many lesbian, gay, and bisexual art educators, students, and artists experience. The caucus was granted affiliate status in March 1996 at the NAEA Conference in San Francisco when the Delegates Assembly voted 39 to 9 in favor. There were 12 abstentions. The caucus changed its name to the LGBTIC in March 2001 to include transgendered people.
This report of the LGBTIC Archivist will cover the accomplishments and activities of the past year from March 2002 to April 2003.
