Queer Family Album is a transdisciplinary festival that feeds on the collaboration of a group of diverse queer artists. This performance series seeks to break barriers and design utopias for a queer future by using a performance-based methodology for queer transdisciplinary storytelling.


In 2024 they will present their first edition of Queer Family Album at Ballhaus Ost with world premieres by KAy Garnellen and Yvonne Sembene. In 2025 they will meet again for Volume 2 at Sophiensaelen, presenting anonymous, Juliana Piquero, Joy Mariama Smith and Dylan Spencer-Davidson.

The goal is to continue to share and highlight queer experiences and create a space for a community that contradicts mainstream ideologies.

Queer Family Album is a group of diverse queer artists who continually collaborate to present work and create a space of care in which they dare to forge queer futures.
