Regardless of vaccination status, ALL ATTENDEES (INCLUDING CHILDREN OVER FIVE) WILL BE REQUIRED TO WEAR A FACE MASK INDOORS except when eating or drinking.

We will most likely distribute wristbands when we check everyone in, so please make sure to keep those on in case you have to leave and come back.

We are excited to celebrate our queer community with our friends and family, but COVID-19 is still a major concern for us. 

WHAT IS QUEERPORT?
QUEERPORT was designed to give queer creators a platform to write, blog, upload video content, create events, hold fashion shows, and document our history. We are a grassroots org with a VOICE!

Our goal is to bring together queer creatives in the south, specifically in northwest Louisiana, to share our stories and create commentary on issues that matter to us. We aspire to empower queer youth and give them alternative resources and programming, offering events and workshops throughout the year. Our long term mission is to build our city’s first LGBTQIA+ arts and resource center.

We can’t wait to see what you create with us! Find out more at queerport.org.
