"Queerantine Fuerza" – FUERZAfest’s response to COVID-19. The amount of Latinx LGBTQ+ talent coming your way will be off the hook.

FUERZAfest is Hispanic Federation’s annual Latino LGBTQ Arts Festival. Now in its fifth year, this artistic celebration is faced with a larger challenge due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the need to expand programming and resources to provide greater support to the community in this time of crisis. FUERZAfest has made the switch to a digital platform to function as a much needed artistic outlet for the LGBTQ community during this time. The digital format will include an array of performances from Latinx LGBTQ artists.

Latin Reel is proudly curating the film section at Fuerzafest this year.
