It a big bowl of "it depends", IMO. Qt is going to keep getting some level of support through companies like Digia[1] and KDE[2]. Especially because of KDE, an entirely open community might spring up around it.
However, I wouldn't bet my own company on it right now. In a year, we'll know where the chips are going to fall. The real problem, of course, is there isn't anything else quite up to Qt's standard.
If this is a for-fun project, patrickaljord's suggestion to use NaCl and html5 isn't a bad idea. I wouldn't do that right now if I wasn't doing it just for fun, though. You are going to get cut up by the bleeding edge there, which is fine if you are trying to push the edge, but sucks when you are just trying to get stuff done.
