Agenda   |   Speakers   |    Queer Joy Fridays

Mission: An Evening of Queer Joy (formerly known as the LGBTQ+ Forum) centers the intersectional queer experience on the full spectrum of pain to joy by creating immersive community spaces, opportunities for authentic expression, and an environment of reflective learning. 

Vision: Centering the experiences of intersectional queer pain & queer joy.

• Queer identities are broad, intersectional, and ever-changing.
• Queer living is complex, experienced as both isolating and inclusive; sometimes dangerous, sometimes joyful at the same time. Broader society's interaction with queerness is equally complex, covering a spectrum from embracing - performative - tolerant - hateful.
• We seek to express these identities and complexities via spaces and experiences in which we are centered.
• We would not be where we are today without conspirators whom: are comfortable with discomfort, actively learn from their mistakes, and understand the work of allyship is never complete.
• Bringing the entire queer community and their conspirators together is done through active, authentic work, and other-centered, reflective learning.
