Boston Gaymers, Now a Nonprofit

Boston Gaymers cultivates a vibrant and inclusive community through a diverse range of programming. Our core focus lies in creating safe and welcoming spaces for LGBTQIA+ individuals to connect through gaming and social events. This includes regular gatherings like Queer Board Game Night and Smash Sis tournaments, as well as larger celebrations such as holiday parties and convention appearances at events like PAX East. We prioritize chosen family events, ensuring those who may lack familial support find belonging and celebration within our community.  

Beyond social events, Boston Gaymers actively engages in community outreach and support. We organize charity streams to uplift local LGBTQIA+ organizations and collaborate with institutions like the Boston Public Library to host youth-oriented events, introducing families to a multitude of varied, inclusive games. We also experiment with one-off and sub-community events, catering to specific interests and needs within our diverse membership. This holistic approach ensures Boston Gaymers remains a vital resource for the LGBTQIA+ community in Boston.

How to Support Us

We rely on the generosity of our community to continue providing safe and fun spaces for LGBTQIA+ gamers in Boston to feel like their true selves. Your support directly enables us to host events, participate in conventions, and create a welcoming environment for everyone.
