# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Cozy Queer Affair by Alter Arts Society
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 15 Nov, 2025 at 12:00 pm – Sun, 16 Nov, 2025 at 05:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Come one come all to A Cozy Queer Affair, our second rendition of our fall themed Out There Art Festival!

We invite you (yes you) to join us for a two day celebration of queer community and diverse art hosted by the Alter Arts Society. As the nights grow longer and the cold starts to set in, we invite you to join us over the November long weekend to cozy up together and celebrate the autumn season with our queer friends and allies.

Pride celebrations in the summer are so utterly integral and deeply nourishing, yet sometimes can be overstimulating in the bright summer light. Big crowds, intense heat, and loud music go hand in hand with summer pride parties. Our intent is to bridge the gap and to add to the community calendar by creating an accessible queer festival that celebrates LGBTQIA2S+ art, community, and performances in a cozy autumnal environment, a Fall Pride if you will.

We will be gathering at the The Other Guise theatre on November 15th and 16th for an all ages community arts festival. We will be hosting an acoustic music stage, a story telling stage, several fall themed visual arts workshops, interactive art installations, as well as a yummy tea lounge.

A Cozy Queer Affair will take place on the traditional lands and unceded territory of the lək"əŋən people, specifically the Songhees Nation. We approach this with humility and are deeply grateful to host this event on their territory, which as unceded territory, remains rightfully belonging to the people who have been keepers of these lands since time immemorial.
