We are hosting another one of our magical Sunday evening tea dances that centers Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (QTBIPOC) folks. We honor the QTBIPOC folks who came before us — our radical ancestors who fought to be seen and heard. We are the culmination of thousands of years of Queer Ancestral strength. We honor the rich diversity of people within the QTBIPOC community. We invite QTBIPOC folks of all backgrounds & identities to come party with us. We also welcome allies. We expect everyone to contribute to a fun and respectful party. We will not tolerate any form of prejudice or discrimination, such as biphobia, fatphobia or transphobia.
