Chennai Queer LitFest 2020 to be held online

This year’s theme of the LitFest is storytelling that is inclusive of queer and other subaltern narratives that transcend the invisible box we are put in.

The festival is yet another edition where the organisers want the ‘mainstream’ to learn and realise that queer art and literature is for everyone. The event that was launched on September 19, will be having two more online sessions on September 26 and 27 from 6 pm to 9.30 pm. On 26th, queer spoken word artist from Austria Florian Niederseer, India’s first openly gay comedian Navin Noronha, comedian Ayushi Jagad and artist Nabi Haider Ali will be speaking. On 27, there will be a reading session of selected works from queer persons. For more details, visit www.queerlitfest.com.
