Queer Creatives is a community writing program that aims to connect LGBTQIA+* writers and makers through collective story making and story sharing by:
-
Nurturing the creative lives of LGBTQIA+ writers and makers.
-
Fostering a fun and encouraging community of fellow LGBTQIA+ creatives in Colorado and beyond.
-
Connecting LGBTQIA+ creatives to valuable resources that will support them in growing their craft.
-
Encouraging writers and artists of all identities to pursue their wildest creative dreams.
By offering free monthly meetups, opportunities to connect with other LGBTQIA+ writers, and our annual Queer Creatives Fest, our mission is to amplify the voices and stories of Queer writers and makers.
*LGBTQIA+ is an abbreviation for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or questioning, intersex, asexual, and more.
Queer Creatives Fest
Every October, we set aside a whole weekend of craft seminars, panel discussions, and fun events to center LGBTQIA+ writers and allies. This Fest takes place every October, and this year's was a big success! More information about the 2027 Fest is coming soon.
Monthly Meetups
Our free monthly meetups provide a space for LGBTQIA+ writers and creatives of all types to share our stories and connect with community. We also welcome folks who are questioning their gender or sexual orientation and those who are in solidarity with LGBTQIA+ communities. Our intention is to center LGBTQIA+ voices during our meetups.
