It’s heeeeere! The 2024 National Queer Arts Festival Spring Catalog has everything you need to plan your journey through June.

In case you’re new or you missed it, here’s what this year’s festival is aiming for: Do you need more deep, life-sustaining joy to ease your queer heart amid the ongoing and intersecting collective conflicts for justice, liberation, (r)evolution, and peace? Us, too. Sustaining a perpetual high level of community joy is impossible. But perennial joy, now that’s not a delusion. Through 26 consecutive years, QCC’s National Queer Arts Festival has demonstrated evidence that, year after year, queer and trans people create a special kind of joy. 2024 is no exception to this proud tradition. QCC is proud to present a curated collection of LGBTQIA2S+ beauty in the form of JOYPOCALYPSE, the 27th annual National Queer Arts Festival, June 1 – 30 in San Francisco, Oakland, and San Jose.
