Out Front

Out Front was established in 1976 by Phil Price, becoming a leading voice for the LGBT community through its unwavering commitment. In the inaugural issue, Price shared his vision: “Out Front will cater to the needs and desires of gays in the area and will feature articles, thought-provoking editorial, the latest news and exciting photography.” After Price's passing in 1993, Jay Klein and Greg Montoya took over the company, continuing his legacy until 2012. In late January, Colorado residents Jerry Cunningham and his partner, JC McDonald, took ownership of Out Front and its parent company, Q Publishing. We take great pride in stating that Out Front is one of the oldest, continuously running, independently owned LGBT publications in the country. This legacy brings us both pride and a sense of responsibility to continue serving the community.

Denver Underground Pride: The Alternative to Corporate Pride

3 weeks ago | outfrontmagazine.com | Julie River

I’ve always been of two minds about the way big Pride festivals are handled. On the one hand, I think a lot of good comes out of Pride. Some people get a chance to see what it’s like to be their authentic selves for the first time because of Pride. I wrote previously about how my coming out was largely about wanting to join in this celebration of who I am at Pride. And a big, huge Pride festival isn’t going to be easily organized without a corporate sponsor.

Welcome to the gayest time of year! It’s once again time for Pride! Pride means a lot of things for a lot of different people. I talked last year about how Pride was a big part of the reason I came out because I wanted to be part of this celebration of who I was. But Pride is more than a celebration. As a popular slogan reminds us, the first Pride was a riot.

A few weeks ago, I had the chance to attend my first Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco gala at the de Young Museum. It’s just a stone’s throw from my apartment, but that night, it felt like stepping into an entirely different world. The museum’s photo wing was cleverly sectioned off for guests, transformed into a flash-friendly playground with immersive photo booths, 360-degree stop-motion cameras, and pop-up installations around every corner. The crowd came dressed to impress.

'Doctor Who' Season Finale 'The Reality War' is Equal Parts Delightful and Infuriating

3 weeks ago | outfrontmagazine.com | Julie River

The trade-off with a show like Doctor Who is that, for all its ability to amaze, it has the equal ability to disappoint. While I appreciated the show’s expansion of their own mythology with the Timeless Child arc during the 13th Doctor era, a lot of people didn’t. I’ve always tried to brace myself for the fact that, someday, the show would do something that would disappoint me, be it a choice for lead actor or a plot device that I don’t approve of.
'Doctor Who' Episode "Wish World" Presents Us With a Horrifying Heteronormative Dystopia

1 month ago | outfrontmagazine.com | Julie River

The right wing has made it very clear that their ultimate goal is to return us to a version of the 1950s that never really existed, where gender roles are never challenged and LGBTQ+ people don’t exist, a world where men go to work and women stay home with babies and nobody ever questions the way of things. This week’s Doctor Who gives us a terrifying glimpse into a world just like that, a version of 2025 wished into being by an incel.
House Republicans Pass Budget Bill Banning Gender-Affirming Care for Adults on Medicaid

1 month ago | outfrontmagazine.com | Julie River

The Republican Party continues its dedication to actively harming the American people with their latest piece of monstrous legislation that they call HR1 or the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” a title so loaded with irony it’s borderline Orwellian. It’s a budget reconciliation bill that the right is touting as being a massive savings bill for the American people, but actually guts many key services including Medicaid.
