This is us.

QUEERAESTHESIA™ encompasses the depth, breadth, and rhythm of what we work to sustain through Queer Black Futures. It's more than a mouthful to summarize the dimensions of skill, talent, design, tools, and continuous learning reflected in how we do and how we dream our communities to become.

COMMUNITY. EVENTS. STRATEGY. SECURITY.

HOUSING. COALITION. MEDIA. HEALTH. FOOD.

SPONSORSHIP. WEALTH. MENTORSHIP. TRAVEL.

This word is our synthesis to capture multitudes of queer realness, response, inspiration, creativity, and realization. We look forward to expand and explore this with our communities more fully as we unfold ourselves, during our soft launch and beyond.
