Since its inception in 2017, Bay Area Queer Zine Fest has strived to positively maintain, support, and contribute to the queer+creative communities it proactively represents. BAQZF aims to provide and uphold a safe, welcoming, and accessible space for all vendors, patrons, and passersby by organizing events centered around inclusivity and constructive interactions with the external and internal communities of the Bay Area and beyond.
With these conditions in mind, BAQZF asks all vendors, patrons, and passersby to refrain from violating any and all boundaries set forth by their peers. We expect all participants of BAQZF events to be accountable for their actions and behaviors; those who implicitly or explicitly violate the Safer Spaces Policy will be asked to voluntarily excuse themselves from the event and, in some cases, further action will be accessed for participation in future events.
