The Queer Narratives Festival stands as Kansas City's premier celebration of LGBTQ+ artistry, offering an inclusive platform for both visual and performing artists to share their stories.

The festival spans eight weeks, featuring a diverse array of programming that includes visual art exhibitions, live performances, workshops, and community events. This year the festival will be held from June 6th to the Main Festival Day, August 2nd, at Zhou B Art Center Kansas City.

The Queer Narratives Festival Is a space where art is an open invitation—one that welcomes those who believe in the power of storytelling to shape a more just, vibrant, and inclusive future.
