I’m super excited to be able to share that the annual Queerness and Games Conference (QGCon) is coming back for its 6th year — this time in Montreal at Concordia University on May 23 & 24, 2020. QGCon has been immensely important to me since we started it back in 2013 at Berkeley — when it was just a dream, a scrappy little budget, and a tenacious refusal to be quiet any longer about the importance of queerness and queer people in video games. It’s the best <3.
Here is the official announcement about QGCon 2020.
Here is the Call for Speakers (deadline October 15).
Here is the Call for Games for the arcade (deadline October 15).
And here is info about our two amazing keynotes – Avery Alder and micha cárdenas.
It’s going to be an(other) wonderful, fierce, confront-systems-of-power-and-celebrate-difference kind of year for QGCon and the queer games community!
