This activity fest for LGBTQ+ and ally youth includes a variety of youth-centered events, including a friendship cruise, art stations, and gaming, to name a few. Additionally, we invite a variety of youth centered community-based organizations and small businesses for more activities. This event is designed for youth to celebrate pride month in a safe environment while creating friendships.
Queer Youth Fest is held during Park Circle Pride. Park Circle Pride offers a diverse schedule of events including drag brunches, trivia, dancing, workshops, an art walk, a poetry stage, restaurant specials, lectures, a cabaret show, bingo, a silent disco, and of course Queer Youth Fest!
Launched as a part of Spirit Day 2020, "Queer Youth Fest” started as week-long series of virtual "festival" events highlighting the role of art in queer/trans resilience. This series of events was designed and planned by our Youth Committee. Our first "Queer Youth Fest" celebration was a lively event featuring Pose actress, Cecilia Gentili.
