🔥 A powerful presentation by Archie Beetle (they/them), Queer Town Founder, CEO and Lead Educator, breaking down “phobias”, discrimination and social bias, the very real implications for LGBTIQA+ folks, and what we can all do to improve outcomes for LGBTIQA+ communities.

🙋 Q&A with inspiring guests (to be revealed!) exploring their remarkable queer lived experiences

🧑🏽‍🎤 Moving performances by some very special and extremely talented queer artists (stay tuned!)

🎧 Top-tier tunes from DJ FRESHXPRINCESS while you enjoy 10/10 catering from queer hospitality extraordinaires and meaningful chats with fellow guests.

Connect with fellow queers and allies in a friendly and inclusive environment. Come and see Queer Town in action, learn more about our impactful initiatives and discover ways to contribute to the meaningful work we do! See you there.
