Queer Stories of Faith is a unique multi-faith event that showcases the stories of the LGBT faithful through storytelling and music.

Our Speakers

For the first time in PrideWA history (at least in a very long time!) there will be a multi-faith event where we will have stories highlighting the lives of LGBT and ally Christians, Jews, and Muslims!

This event will be showcasing a diverse group of speakers from the LGBTIQA+ community. Our speakers come from a variety of backgrounds including age, gender, sexual orientation, ethnic backgrounds, professions, and lived experience in both the metropolitan and regional communities.

Come be a part of this uplifting celebration of diversity, inclusion, and the power of faith in the face of adversity.

Live Music:

There will be live music performances featuring Perth Kabbalat Shabbat, Marya Budianta, and Graeme Douglas-Meyer.

Note:

We intend for this event to be a safe and nourishing for LGBTIQA+ people of faith, as well as their supporters and allies. As a condition of entry, we require all participants to help make this event a sanctuary for LGBTIQA+ people.

No homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, or any kind of bigoted and abusive language detrimental to LGBTIQA+ people will be tolerated.
Our event is a safe space and antisocial behaviour, whether it be physical, verbal, or digital is grounds for instant expulsion and a lifetime ban at our events.
As many of our religious as well as secular spaces remain unsafe places for LGBTIQA+ people of faith to speak freely, as part of the condition of entry, we ask that Chatham House Rules be observed.
No photography or filming will be allowed at this event, unless expressed written consent is obtained from the organisers.
