The Dorian Awards are general and LGBTQ-themed accolades for excellence in film, television and Broadway theatre / Off-Broadway, as voted by the members of GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics. GALECA is an association of professional journalists and critics who regularly report on movies, TV and/or New York City stage productions for news media outlets mainly in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. The group was founded in 2009 as the Gay and Lesbian Entertainment Critics Association. As of December 2025, the organization listed approximately 570 members, including those on its advisory board. "Members". GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics: Home of The Dorian Awards. Retrieved December 24, 2025
The Dorian Award is named in honor of Oscar Wilde, in reference to the main character from his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the honor's logo includes an illustration of Wilde.
Various versions of the physical award over the years include a framed certificate, a giant cue-card, and a small canvas print showing an illustrated portrait of the winner or a memorable scene from the awarded project. Windy City Times, April 19, 2021 "GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics hands out Dorian Awards" During GALECA's Dorians Film Toast 2021 (airing April 18, 2021 on the streaming platform Revry), actress Carey Mulligan, in accepting the group's Best Actress award for her work in Promising Young Woman, said her Dorian "might be the coolest prize I've ever seen." Variety, April 18, 2021, by Jazz Tangcay, "Nomadland and Ma Rainey's Black Bottom Named Top Films at Dorian Awards"
In addition to more traditional categories such as Film of the Year and Best TV Comedy, the Dorians include more novel categories, including Unsung TV Show, Visually Striking Film, Wilde Wit, and Campy Flick, an honor that has generated amusement from The New York Times. The New York Times, January 19, 2011, by Melena Ryzik, "And The Campy Award Goes To . . ."
Rather than present an official awards ceremony, GALECA typically hosts its annual "Dorian Awards Winners Toast", an informal day party in Los Angeles for members, winners, nominees, and associates. The Seattle Lesbian, March 4, 2015, "Transparent, The Comeback, The Case Against 8 Stars Join Gay and Lesbian Entertainment Critics 'Winners Toast'" Frontiers, March 12, 2014, By Stephan Horbelt, "Avant-garde Celebs Gather at GALECA's Winners Toast" For the 2020 Toast, Antonio Banderas, the group's choice for 2019 Film Performance of the Year—Actor, and actress-director Olivia Wilde, director of GALECA's Unsung Film of the Year winner Booksmart, were among the honored guests. Greg in Hollywood, February 3, 2020, "Snapped – Scenes from Dorian Awards Presented by GALECA The Society of LGBTQ Critics"
In September 2020, GALECA presented its first televised awards, Dorians TV Toast 2020, a pre-recorded two-hour special on Revry with appearances by performers and producers including Hugh Jackman, Janelle Monáe, Billy Porter, Margaret Cho, Josh Thomas, Regina King, Dan Levy, Laverne Cox, John Oliver, Chad Michaels, Thomas Roberts, Fiona Shaw, Annie Murphy, Alex Newell, and Damon Lindelof. The program, shown on LGBTQ+ streaming platform Revry, was hosted by broadcasting veteran and LGBTQ rights activist Charles Karel Bouley, and included segments where he and other GALECA members discussed the merits of the contenders in various categories. The Hollywood Reporter, September 13, 2020, by Trilby Beresford, "Schitt's Creek Wins Best Comedy, LGBTQ Show and More at Dorians TV Toast"
Bouley, known simply as Karel, also hosted the group's Dorians Film Toast 2021, this time a three-hour special featuring Carey Mulligan, Daniel Kaluuya, Chloé Zhao, Lee Daniels George C. Wolfe, Radha Blank, Lee Isaac Chung, Cynthia Nixon, Gabourey Sidibe, Rachel McAdams, Isabel Sandoval, Colman Domingo, Rafael L. Silva, Harry Hamlin, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, Deven Green, Leslie Jordan, Emerald Fennell, California governor Gavin Newsom, Charo, Cox, Michaels, and other stars. "Wilde Artist" recipient Dolly Parton did not appear in the show to accept that special award ("to a truly ground-breaking force in film, theater, and/or television"), but said in a statement: "I'm not sure I'm as edgy as past winners (in the Wilde Artist category) like Todd Haynes, Kate McKinnon, Lin-Manuel Miranda, and Jordan Peele — but I am honored and humbled. I appreciate all of you entertainment journalists who are so passionate and are working so hard. Keep up the good work!" Variety, April 18, 2021, by Jazz Tangcay, "Nomadland and Ma Rainey's Black Bottom Named Top Films at Dorian Awards"
A third awards special, Dorians TV Toast 2021, streamed on Here TV and its YouTube channel Planet Out, and later on-demand on Tubi.

GALECA members who've authored new books on entertainment are occasionally interviewed by other members on the group's YouTube channel. Some of the authors who've participated are Tre'vell Anderson ( We See Each Other: A Black, Trans Journey Through TV and Film), Kristen Lopez ( But Have You Read the Book? 52 Literary Gems That Inspired Our Favorite Films), Michael Schulman ( Oscar Wars), Matt Baume ( Hi Honey, I'm Homo) and Kyle Turner ( The Queer Film Guide: 100 great movies that tell LGBTQIA+ stories).
The channel also features members' interviews with Hollywood and New York stage creatives doing work the organization deems somehow special. Among the subjects: Kristen Wiig, Ricky Martin, Dominic Burgess and the creators of the Apple TV+ comedy Palm Royale; the stars and creators of Netflix's Dead Boy Detectives; and Longtime Companion cast members Bruce Davison, Dermot Mulroney and Stephen Caffrey alongside screenwriter Craig Lucas.
In addition, members' individual talks with such group "heroes" as Ziwe Fumudoh, Trace Lysette and Wilson Cruz are also presented. GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics YouTube channel Retrieved June 25, 2024
In 2024, GALECA announced the group's choices for America's 10 Best TV News Journalists, praising the work of such on-air figures as CNN anchors Christiane Amanpour and Kaitlan Collins, NBC News reporter Jacob Soboroff, ABC News' David Muir and Robin Roberts, and Mehdi Hasan.Adweek, October 25, 2024, by Mark Mwachiro "Ticker: The Washington Post and The Los Angeles Times Will Not Endorse a Presidential Candidate"Los Angeles Blade November 7, 2024, [22]

In 2018, the group separated its film and TV awards' timelines, with Dorian movie award winners revealed each February and TV honors in August. Motion Picture Association of America website "The Credits", June 13, 2018, By Christine Champagne, "Get to Know GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics"
In 2019, GALECA joined forces with the African-American Film Critics Association, Latino Entertainment Journalists Association (LEJA), the entertainment and features arm of the Asian American Journalists Association, the Online Association of Female Film Critics, and Time's Up Entertainment's CRITICAL initiative to form Critics Groups for Equality in Media (CGEM), to promote diversity in journalism. Los Angeles Times, June 19, 2019, By Ashley Lee, "Critics groups band together to redefine who covers Hollywood" Time's Up, enmeshed in controversy, eventually dropped out of the alliance ahead of ceasing its programs in January 2023. The Hollywood Reporter, January 21, 2023, By Rebecca Keegan, "Time’s Up to Halt Operations"
Due to COVID-19 pandemic's effects on the film business, for its 2021 film awards, GALECA adjusted its window of eligibility to movies released in 2020 and the first two months of 2021. The 2022 Dorian film awards considered movies released in the remaining months of 2021. In that two-year period, award contenders vied for "Best Film" rather than "Film of the Year," which the group restored in 2023.
Also in 2023, GALECA introduced the Crimson Honors, a college journalism contest for aspiring film and TV critics, focused on elevating female and nonbinary students of color in the LGBTQ community. The critics' reviews aggregate Rotten Tomatoes provided scholarship funds to three winners.Nicholson School of Communication and Media / Nicholson News, July 7, 2023, by Majdulina Hamed "DORIAN THEATER AWARDS To Return For 2nd Year This May" GALECA broadened the contest's eligibility to LGBTQ students in general for its 2025 scholarship, with the organization this time providing prize funds itself.University of Utah Department of Film and Media Arts webpage, February 12, 2025 / "College Entertainment Critics Contest Announced - GALECA's Crimson Honors Will Award $3000 in Scholarships"National Hispanic Media Coalition website, February 14, 2025 / "NHMC Amplifies Creatives"
