Queer All Year Webinar: Queer Culinary Leaders

Tue, October 28, 2025

Join us virtually for James Beard Foundation and Queer Food Foundation’s webinar series, Queer All Years Series. This six part webinar series offers robust conversations about the intersectionality of LGBTQ+ identity and food with chefs and other culinary professionals. While we acknowledge Pride month is important, we believe in celebrating the community year-round. Each panel highlights several aspects (the good, bad, and hopeful) of queer food spaces. Register to be part of the live webinar or check out the recordings on JBF’s online Resource Center. Each panel is moderated by a member of the QFF’s Board.

This month we’ll feature Queer Culinary Leaders: Innovators who are redefining kitchens, challenging industry norms, and building more inclusive, equitable spaces through food.
