Running a free service costs a lot of money!!
Queer Youth Art Collective (QYAC) is the UK’s only national LGBT youth service working specifically in the arts. We provide a safe place for young LGBT people (18-28) to breathe a little easier, share experiences, advice, resources and creativity.
QYAC is a free queer art school. We are instilling in the next generation of LGBT artists the values of collaboration, accessibility in the arts and the importance of educating those who come after.
QYAC hosts free weekly workshops, run by queer artists. We co-curate exhibitions, offer mentoring, social space and resources. We are based out of Queer Circle in Greenwich London. All workshops can also be attended on Zoom.

Our Community:
The majority of people who attend QYAC sessions (over 60%) identify as trans and/or non binary. Stonewall’s 2018 Trans Report found, more than a third of trans university students (36%) in higher education have experienced negative comments or behaviour from staff in the last year.
In this current climate of increased hostility towards trans young people, providing a free, supportive education and community setting that can be accessed remotely has been a lifeline for individuals in London, and for trans young people throughout the UK.
