ABOUT US
The Curve Foundation hosts Lesbian Visibility Week across the US, and is the only national nonprofit that champions LGBTQ+ women’s culture and stories from an intergenerational perspective. When our stories and contributions to society are not shared, are not protected, we see increases in violence against women, mental health issues, homeless youth, and suicide. Curve programs spotlight the roles lesbians and queer women hold in society and the contributions we make.
Curve Magazine has been a trailblazing publication for lesbian and queer women for over 30 years, offering a bold and inclusive perspective on news, politics, and social issues that impact LGBTQ+ communities worldwide. As a trusted voice for more than three decades, Curve dives deep into topics that matter—from groundbreaking coverage on equality and human rights to cultural commentary and celebrity interviews. Curve celebrates the diversity and resilience of the lesbian experience, spotlighting stories on entertainment, lifestyle, pop culture and fashion that inspire and connect its readers. Curve remains committed to amplifying voices, driving change, and building a thriving global community for all LGBTQ+ women.
