Description

Queer events are crucial for the community—now more than ever. So what does it take to cultivate strong, supportive, and safe queer spaces? We asked Jessica Figueroa, aka Fig, from QueerGxrl.


QueerGxrl is a premier events company for the next generation of queer womxn. Based in San Diego with plans to expand, QueerGxrl has amassed over 100K followers online and hosts regular parties for hundreds of people.


We sat down with Fig to ask how they did it. From filling a major gap for queer women to building a community where everyone feels included, Fig explains why the work that QueerGxrl does is so important. She also shares her personal story, from being a closeted college athlete to becoming the face of a successful queer events company.
