About Big Ole Queer Market

What is BOQM?

Big Ole Queer Market is just what it sounds like. A huge market featuring LGBTQIA+ owned small businesses and artists. This event is free to the public and all are welcome.

Why BOQM?

Gratien Jamail of Ella's Apothecary began Big Ole Queer Market in 2022 and seeked out partnership with The Little Gay Shop, Together we have organized the biggest market of queer vendors Texas has ever seen.

But Why?

The LGBTQIA+ community is constantly faced with the struggle of fighting for our rights to exist and lead happy, healthy lives. Unfortunately, most queer owned artists and businesses struggle for afordable opportunities to showcase our work and connect with shoppers who truly understand the importance of supporting their local community. The "official" Pride celebrations that most cities put on, charge artists and vendors up to $600 just to have a small booth for a few hours. It's almost always at an event that sells tickets to the public (lowering the attendance of shoppers) and almost always outdoors in the hottest time of the year. It's very clear the only people the organizers of these events want to support are themselves and their pocketbooks.

Gratien began this event with a dream and a mission. This is an event organized by small queer owned business, with small queer owned businesses in mind. We want big, accessible, free to the public, indoors with AC, inclusive, and affordable, and we found a way to do it. We put our vendors first in all decisions and we aim to make bigger and better opportunities for our community.

Thank you for your support! We will see you there!
