Project Description

RADAR is a Bay Area queer literary arts organization creating and supporting a community of queer artists of color through commissioning, developing and presenting ground-breaking literary work. Our programs include SHOW US YOUR SPINES a monthly residency with the Hormel Center at the SFPL; the legendary Sister Spit tour and a yearly literary and visual arts collaboration.

Founded in 2003, RADAR serves a regional community of queer writers and authors of color and is one of the nation’s highest profile LGBTQ+ literary arts organizations. Our presenting, commissioning, touring, on-line and career development programs stimulate the production and consumption of queer literature and explore the community-building role played by literature and the arts. Our programs give voice to innovative queer authors and spoken word artists whose works challenge mainstream concepts of queer culture, feminism, race and class.
