Quirky And Or Queer
by Quirky And Or Queer
Quirky And Or Queer is an exploration of otherness and queerness. How does being quirky and or queer influence work, creative pursuits, and love lives of those who experience a sense of otherness? I sit down and interview community workers, musicians, drag queens, disability advocates, theatre performers, and all sorts of other wonderful people to talk about what it feels like to be different and how it shapes their experiences of the world. Some are quirky, some are queer, all are fabulous.
