Photographer Catalina Kulczar-Marin takes on the fight to legalize same-sex marriage with the exhibit Let Love Reign. The show features black-and-white portraits snapped by her of several Charlotte same-sex couples (such as Tony and Drew in the image to the left), depicting the love they share — and helping to put a face on the contentious issue. Organizers will also host a discussion, in conjunction with the exhibit, about marriage equality on Oct. 23.
Oct. 22 through Oct. 30. Opening celebration on Oct. 22, 6 p.m.-9 p.m. Free admission. Gil Gallery, 109 W. Morehead St. 704-375-7232. www.edwingil.com. www.letlovereign.org.
