Are you a queer creative?

If so, @thequeerartcollective may be the blog you’ve been looking for! First established on Instagram in 2015, The Queer Art Collective was curated to exhibit the talents of ALL queer creatives and to empower those within the LGBTQIA+ community. The collective has since expanded to Tumblr, where we have an extremely supportive and growing community.

If you would like to have your work posted on our blog and/or Instagram, please make a submission to [email protected]! Keep in mind, this collective is not limited to work by visual artists alone, but is accepting of art in all its forms.

I have big plans for this collective and in order to realize them, I will need your support. With your help, I can provide all of you with better exposure and build the incredible organization I have planned out in my head. Please share x

One Day

One day these struggles will be behind me. One day I will rise above my past. One day I won't be counting pennies. One day this world won't move too fast. One day I will overcome my abuse. One day "I can't afford that" will be "Let's go, I've got this". One day I won't feel like I have no use. One day things won't be amiss. One day the flashbacks will stop. One day I'll be my own man. One day I'll come out on top. One day I'll know that I can. One day I'll wake up and not wonder how I got this far. One day my mind won't be cloudy. One day I'll be a star. One day I may be rowdy. One day I'll be proud of myself. One day their words won't matter. One day I'll put my worries on the shelf. One day I'll just hear chatter. One day I'll see the world. One day I'll make my own way. One day my wings will be unfurled. One day.

Can people submit poems and writings as well?

Definitely! Any type of creative work is welcome as long as it’s by an artist who identifies within the LGBTQIA+ community.

[thequeerartcollective]

is just for men identified trans people or can trans women and other amab trans folks submit?

All people, no matter where they identify within the LGBTQIA+ community, are welcome to submit any of their own creative work to this blog, or preferably to [email protected]! I would prefer that the work be completely original - unless the artist has permission to use the work of someone else’s in their piece.
