For more than 30 years, Queer Screen has championed LGBTIQ+ storytelling, filmmakers and community connection through film.
Through the Mardi Gras Film Festival, Queer Screen Film Fest and year-round initiatives, we create opportunities for diverse voices to be seen, shared and celebrated.
At a time when many independent queer stories still struggle for visibility and support, philanthropy plays an important role in helping ensure these stories continue to reach audiences, build understanding and inspire future generations.
Philanthropic support helps Queer Screen champion filmmakers, expand access to queer stories and ensure these important voices continue to be seen, shared and celebrated for generations to come.
