History:
Que(e)ry was founded in 2010, inspired by the work of the Desk Set. Since its first party in June 2010 in Brooklyn, NY, Que(e)ry has expanded and continued its work to bring attention and support to hidden queer collections, and to provide a fun social space for queer nerds and those who love them. Librarians, archivists, metadata specialists, library school students, museum professionals, educators, scholars, book artists, illustrators, comics fans, technophiles, historians, writers, publicists, documentarians, and bibliophiles of all genders and orientations have made their way to Que(e)ry events in Brooklyn and Manhattan.
With their support as well as that of several generous local businesses, venues, and volunteers, we’ve raised thousands of dollars for organizations such as:
The Tom of Finland Foundation Archives (Los Angeles)
The Lesbian Herstory Archives (New York)
The Leather Archives and Museum (Chicago)
The LGBT Center Library and Archives (New York)
The Transgender Library and Archives (Houston)
The Queer Zine Archive Project (Milwaukee)
