About this Event
About this Event
is a retreat built for you — Queer BIPOC professionals in STEAM and mental health who deserve space to rest, connect, and thrive.
Happening October 11–12, 2025 at Center on Halsted in Chicago, Queer Quest is two days of healing, community, and possibility. It’s a chance to step away from survival mode and into a multiverse where science, culture, and care come together to nourish every part of who you are.
Why Attend
Because you deserve:
- A space designed with your identity at the center
- Healing practices that honor both tech and tradition
- Connections with people who get it
- Tools you can take back to your life and work
When the world tells us to shrink, Queer Quest invites you to expand.
Immersive Healing – STEAM for the Soul
- Guided meditations
- Biofeedback healing pods
- Quantum Creativity Labs
- Mental Wellness & STEAM Resource Village
Community & Culture
- Morning grounding rituals
- Closing celebration of queer joy
- Art, sound, and storytelling that affirm your wholeness
Who It’s For
Queer Quest was created with Black and Brown queer professionals in STEAM and mental health at the center — students, postdocs, innovators, therapists, and anyone craving community and affirmation.
While the retreat is designed around Queer BIPOC experiences, it is open to everyone who believes in liberation, healing, and building futures where all identities thrive.
Why Now
2SLGBTQ+ rights and DEI programs are being dismantled. Queer Quest is our collective response: to gather, heal, and celebrate anyway.
This is your invitation to step into a multiverse of healing and possibility.
Join the Movement
Queer Quest isn’t just an event — it’s the beginning of an annual, scalable gathering where Queer BIPOC professionals can rest, restore, and reimagine.
This is your invitation to step into a multiverse of healing and possibility.
