Queer Nilayam is a social enterprise dedicated to advancing LGBTQIA+ inclusion through art, culture, and community engagement. Founded in 2021 in Hyderabad and now based in Bangalore, we curate programs that showcase queer talent, foster dialogue, and promote cultural visibility across Karnataka and India.

Our initiatives span art and literature festivals, community events, capacity-building workshops, and collaborations with inclusive brands and institutions. Each initiative aims to bridge the gap between creative expression and social impact — empowering queer individuals to tell their stories, build livelihoods, and shape cultural narratives.

At Queer Nilayam, we believe that visibility is power — and that art and dialogue can drive lasting inclusion and change.
