about us
Blueboy® Archives & Cultural Arts Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt nonprofit organization.
We are committed to the preservation and promotion of Blueboy® magazine archives and the works of other historic LGBTQ+ periodicals, artwork, newspapers, literary works, films and ephemera.
Our mission is to collect, preserve and maintain these archives for historical, educational, research, and curatorial purposes.
BACAF research includes contextualizing Blueboy® within LGBTQ+ history and remediating the publication for a contemporary audience. Other collections we maintain are sought out for their subject matter as they pertain to performance of gender, sexuality, media and identity.
We partner with LGBTQ+ communities to intimately record their histories, stories, and achievements. Through oral history, storytelling, recorded media and exhibits — their archives offer an insight into the lives, movements, and social gatherings that shaped their communities.
