Something spooky's coming

πŸ‘€ October is right around the corner which means it’s almost LGBTQ+ History Month! Each October, the LGBT Center of Raleigh celebrates our history through weekly historical posts honoring our elders. And this year, now that we are finally back in our community center in downtown Raleigh, we’re thrilled to host weekly events centering our history, icons, and milestones. This is also an annual fundraiser to support our community center operations - stay tuned for posts on the impact we’ve already had thanks to your previous support. πŸ’ƒ Join us for our first event on Friday, 10/2 for a screening of Paris is Burning. (Suggested $5-10 donation) 🎨 On Wednesday, 10/7 we’re hosting a trans history exhibit and will be joined by our friends at T4T Collective. (free event, donations welcome) ❀️ On 10/15, @viivhealthcare, @allianceas_carolina, and @latinodeepsouth are joining us for Latine HIV/AIDS Awareness Day. We’ll be conducting testing and hosting trivia. (free event, donations welcome) 🎞️ We’re joined by Alt Shift Collective on 10/21 for a screening of β€œKiki.” This is a ticketed event - stay tuned for details. 🍹 Finally, on 10/28 we’re hosting an Aro-Ace Mixer for Ace Awareness Week. We’ll have conversation starters and light snacks, plus ace-themed drinks available by donation. (free event, donations welcome) For all of these events, we’re leaning in to spooky month and costumes are highly encouraged! The best dressed at each event will win a prize with LGBT Center merch. πŸ¦Έβ€β™€οΈ πŸ§›β€β™€οΈ We hope to see you at an event soon!
