The Q Queer Creative Network (The Q)
The Q Queer Creative Network (The Q) is a non-profit organization advocating for and uplifting the 2SLGBTQIA+ creative community. Founded in 2018, The Q exists to empower queer artists, amplify their voices, and build meaningful connections within and beyond the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. At the heart of The Q’s mission is a commitment to addressing a vital question: Why are 2SLGBTQIA+ creatives still underrepresented in mainstream arts and media? Through ongoing research, collaboration, and public engagement, The Q has grown into a vibrant hub for queer creativity and expression.
Our Core Initiatives
Artist advocacy and support — Providing resources, mentorship, and visibility opportunities for 2SLGBTQIA+ creatives across disciplines.
Community education — Hosting workshops, exhibits, and speaking events that celebrate the diversity and contributions of queer artists.
Youth empowerment — Creating pathways for queer youth to explore artistic careers and connect with mentors in the community.
Creative platforms — Producing media initiatives such as Out Loud radio and podcast, the New Queer Canada music chart, live social media conversations, and blog features spotlighting emerging talent.
Representation and inclusion — Partnering with media, arts, and entertainment organizations to strengthen 2SLGBTQIA+ visibility and advocacy.
Collaboration and outreach — Working alongside Pride organizations and youth-focused groups to promote equity, accessibility, and education.
The Q proudly partners with organizations, festivals, and community programs that celebrate creativity and inclusion. Whether it’s collaborating on Pride events, amplifying local queer arts showcases, or supporting grassroots initiatives that center 2SLGBTQIA+ voices, The Q brings its communication platforms, media reach, and creative network to help raise awareness and engagement. By shining a spotlight on events and programs that embody queer excellence, The Q ensures that community efforts receive the visibility and support they deserve. Sponsors and partners working with The Q can expect a dedicated ally ready to help promote shared values of diversity, equity, and creative expression.
Through media, advocacy, and community-building, The Q continues to serve as a central meeting point for 2SLGBTQIA+ artists and audiences. We believe that creative visibility fosters understanding, and when queer voices are heard, entire communities grow in strength.
Together, we’re stronger.
