The Gay and Lesbian Entertainment Critics Association (GALECA) is an organization that is comprised of critics and entertainment journalists who write on television and film for noteworthy media outlets easily accessible in the U.S. According to its website, most members identify as a member of the LGBTQ-munity: lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer, but the organization has non-gay “ally” journalists in its ranks, members who tend to work for LGBTQ-targeted outlets).
Through its annual Dorian Awards, GALECA toasts the finest in movies and television, from mainstream to LGBTQ-centric. Oscar Wilde is the group's patron saint.
