Queer Craft Collective is a not-for-profit, inclusive makerspace and business incubator dedicated to uplifting LGBTQ+ artists, crafters, and creatives. We provide a safe, affirming space where individuals—especially teens and young adults—can explore their creativity, learn entrepreneurial skills, and build community through the arts. As a member-run collective, we focus on collaboration, skill-sharing, and mutual support. Mentorship programs empower members to turn their passions into sustainable creative businesses. At Queer Craft Collective, we believe that crafting is both resistance and celebration—and everyone deserves a place to shine.
