is to provide safe Queer spaces, where LGBTQIA+ people can exist in their own skin, without judgment or pressure to hide. The spaces we aim to create are literal spaces, digital spaces, as well as a network for the Queer community from Eindhoven and its surroundings. Queerhoven provides opportunities for the Queer community to connect with and support each other. The organization broadens access to queer life beyond the usual nightlife. From the Queer Art Market at Dynamo to Dungeons & Dragons nights, crafting afternoons, makeup workshops, sporting events and plenty other initiatives, Queerhoven is carving out a space for its community in the city.

You can find out about the way we work in the short version of our Playbook, which is a set of guidelines that all Queerhoven organizers act according to.
All organizers volunteer their time and efforts for free and all donations are invested back into the community.

Our Code of Conduct is the central guidance for everyone joining our spaces, virtual and physical.
To make our events comfortable for everyone, we came up with these awesome stickers (pictured above) to introduce yourself and clearly indicate your photo preference. As you can see, "no photos" option is the default and by bending/tearing this bottom part you actively consent to your pictures being taken during our events, as well as possibly put on our social media. Anyone who is taking photos/videos during the events can then clearly see (from afar as well) when the bottom part is still there and is expected to respect this notice.

How can I help with organizing?
If you'd like to help us, you can sign up as a volunteer or (when applications are open) an organizer. You can also join our Townhall event that takes place every other month. We encourage you to show up to events and to proactively get to know the community! It's the best way to find out what type of help you'd be best suited for, whether it's one-time or recurring. You can help out with being a dedicated extravert, giving out stickers, setting up or cleaning up, any small action helps :)
