GFEST – Gaywise FESTival, 'London's LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender) and queer cross - art festival for all', has announced their 2011 programme.

This year the festival will take place across various London venues including The Dreamspace Gallery, Prince Charles Cinema, The Cockpit Theatre and Rich Mix amongst other venues.

The festival focuses on three main categories covering Short Films, Visual Arts and Performances. Complementing the programme are a series of workshops, participatory theatre, debates and parties.

Niranjan Kamatkar, the artistic director of GFEST, said:
"We are proud to announce the much awaited GFEST 2011 line up for visual arts exhibition, film screenings and performances. We hope, the loyal LGBT and other audiences will provide maximum support to help meet the fundraising needs for this year."

"Now in its fifth year, I still feel that we have barely scratched the surface of the enormous contemporary LGBTQ talent and artistic diversity that exists around us – and which makes great contributions to the national and international arts scene. I am confident that GFEST 2011 programme is a thrilling mix of high quality artistic presentations from the LGBT community."

The festival is recognised as one of the four key events taking place in the capital's annual LGBT and Queer calendar.

GFEST 2011 runs for two weeks from Monday November 7, 2011 to Sunday November 20, 2011.
