Scope and Content Notes

The Corvallis Queer Film Festival (CQFF) was a community-organized showcase of films directed by queer-identified individuals about queer lives and experiences. This collection has promotional materials from the festival and one of the featured films, as well as related festivals in Portland, Oregon. These related festivals include the Portland Lesbian and Gay Film Festival and the Portland Queer Documentary Film Festival.

Biographical / Historical Notes

The Corvallis Queer Film Festival (CQFF) was a community-organized showcase running from 2013 to 2019. The Festival featured films created by queer-and-trans-identified directors about the queer experience. While the CQFF took place at the Darkside Cinema in Corvallis and was locally sponsored by the School of Language, Culture and Society at Oregon State University, submissions from all around the world were accepted and considered.

In 2020, however, the festival was renamed the TAG! Queer Shorts Festival and became Portland-based. After a final send off in Corvallis, TAG! has continued at the Hollywood Theater in Portland, Oregon.
