Join us to look at common experiences from history, discuss how we can show that we are safe and welcoming to others, and explore ways to make our communities more supportive and healthy for everyone. Free and open to the public.
Throughout history, people have found ways to connect with others who have similar experiences or skills. For those who face danger, like people escaping slavery in the U.S. or early Christians, these connections could be a matter of life or death. Queer people have also developed subtle ways of figuring out who is safe to trust and who is not.
Please arrive 15 minutes early if you do not complete the pretest ahead of time.
Please expect to spend about 10 minutes after the workshop completing the assessment.
Please feel free to bring a meal to eat during the workshop.
In this workshop, we will look at common experiences from history, discuss how we can show that we are safe and welcoming to others, and explore ways to make our communities more supportive and healthy for everyone.
FREE and open to the public.
