In honor of Pride Month, we invite AGMA members who identify as part of the LGBTQIA+ community to share stories, poetry, or artwork that reflect their experiences. Selected submissions will be featured on AGMA’s website, newsletter, and social platforms throughout June.
Interested members are encouraged to schedule an interview with Eldee, AGMA’s Communications Coordinator, or submit their own work.
PARTICIPATION GUIDELINES:
Response Deadline: Monday, June 1, 2026, 5:00 p.m. ET
Members can participate by filling out this form and either selecting to:
- ‘Sit down’ with AGMA’s Communications Coordinator for an interview. (Interviews will be conducted either over Zoom or email, whichever you prefer!) OR
- Submit a written reflection/story (150-800 words suggested); poetry and artwork are also accepted
Some discussion ideas:
- Share a project, performance, or artwork that reflects your personal experiences.
- A memory, celebration, or experience of the queer people in your life–including chosen family, mentors, and community members.
- Stories of navigating gender expectations in professional or artistic spaces.
- Small acts of affirmation that meant a lot to you.
- The joy of performing queer work, queer roles, or work that resonated deeply with your identity.
- A performance or audience moment where you felt deeply connected to the community.
- Stories of mentorship, solidarity, or support among LGBTQIA+ artists.
