The Curve Foundation champions the stories, storytellers and curators of culture. Following in the lesbian tradition of Curve magazine, we spotlight those in our community who use story to center the hope, agency and dignity of lesbians, queer women, transgender and nonbinary people.

The Curve Award program resources and raises the visibility of journalists in the Curve tradition. The Curve Archive program leverages the extensive legacy of Curve magazine to curate today’s culture & foster conversation. We are committed to the guiding values of authenticity, belonging and resilience and our programs build lasting bridges between lesbian and queer past and futures.
