Coming June 21st to the Murray Room: THE RAINBOW CAFE

Relax, enjoy, be comfortable in this safe, sacred space made for the LGBTQ+ community and allies. We hope to create a kind, caring, shared space to help us all through the events in our country. We hold concerns for ourselves and each other. Let’s put them on the table, get them into the light together so we can help chase the darkness away. Remember, we are all just walking each other home.

Open the 3rd Saturday of the month from 1-4pm. Attendants will be available to talk or to be a 4th for a game. Beverages and snacks are freely offered for your enjoyment (though donations wouldn’t be refused 😊).
