What this project is

State of Queer, NH is a community-made guide highlighting affirming businesses, services, artists, and gathering spaces plus quick-start info on organizing and getting involved. It’s by and for the community, designed to help folks find safety, belonging, and ways to plug in.

How it works

  1. You submit resources, artists, and stories.
  2. We curate & design an accessible, 5.5" x 8.5" printed guide (under 40 pages).
  3. Partners distribute copies across NH — cafés, clinics, libraries, orgs, and events.

We’ll also host a digital version with ongoing updates.
