A Celebration of Queer Cinema at the Film Center
For more than a decade, Gateway Film Foundation has proudly presented Pride Month as one of our signature annual programs, celebrating the artistry, history, and ongoing evolution of queer cinema. Each year, audiences gather for a thoughtfully curated series that reflects the richness, complexity, and cultural impact of LGBTQ+ storytelling across generations.
This June, the tradition continues with a selection of bold, joyful, and essential films, from iconic classics to contemporary voices, inviting our community to experience stories that resonate, challenge, and endure.
This year, we are proud to partner with The Wex, expanding Pride Month across Columbus with an extended slate of contemporary and repertory works that deepen the conversation and broaden the experience of queer cinema in our city.
