Pink Flamingo Productions – Queerswitch

Pink Flamingo Productions is the brainchild of Jules and Rach, proud Ipswich locals who have lived and worked in the city for more than 20 years. They are passionate about Ipswich, about celebrating the achievements of the LGBTQIA+ community and about shining a light on the struggles still faced by many of its members.

Their Small Grant goes towards the funding of Queerswitch 2024,  a free family fun-day for the LGBTQIA+ and wider community in Ipswich QLD. The event aims to raise awareness of the LGBTQIA+ community within Ipswitch; to celebrate its achievements and highlight its ongoing battles. Through this event, they hope to reduce social stigma, provide essential education to the wider community, shine a spotlight on the very real issues faced by the LGBTQIA+ community, while creating a safe and supportive space for LGBTQIA+ peoples of all ages, identities and lived experiences.
