Next Up: Queer Families

This Gather will explore what it is like for families who have at least two queer members. Panelists will include women who identify as lesbian and/or queer and have family members who are queer as well. For those of us who always wished we had a gay mom/dad or gay sister/brother, this is a discussion you don't want to miss!

Sunday, February 20th from 5pm - 7pm
LGBT Community Center
Room 102

Next Gather: Body Image

Where do women stand on body image within the lesbian community? Do we have a body image problem? Are we body image free? Moreover, what are the body-type desireables for lesbians?

Let's discuss all of this and more at the next Gather:

Sunday, November 21st from 4pm to 6pm

Gather Happy Hour

Happy Summer everyone!

Let's meet up for happy hour drinks at Abigail Cafe & Wine Bar in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn on Thursday, Aug. 19th from 7pm to 9pm. Pretty informal...no panel discussion...just plain hanging out!

See you there!

What a Great Gather(ing)!

Here are some pictures from our Married Women Who Love Women Gather(ing). Thank you to all who participated and attended!

Married Women Who Love Women

Happy Spring everybody! The next Gather will take place on Sunday, May 23rd from 5pm to 7pm at the famous LGBT Community Center in Manhattan. Since we have been talking about coming out, I thought it would be useful to have a Gather(ing) on married women who have come out or are currently in the process.

A great resource that I am using for this Gather is
Carren Strock's book Married Women Who Love Women. Carren will be joining us on the panel for this Gather.

See also Joanne Fleisher's book "Living Two Lives"...check out her website for more details.

*Oh, and more details to come on this Gather!

Next Gather: Coming Out in Religious Communities

While the last Gather focused on coming out, we didn't get to discuss an important facet of this phenomena: coming out as a lesbian within religious communities and/or religious families.

Join us Sunday, February 21^th from 6:15pm - 8pm at the LGBT Community Center (Room 410, 208 West 13th Street, New York, NY).

*No photos will be taken at this Gather

Next Gather: Coming Out

Yay! The next Gather will take place on Sunday, December 6th at 5:15pm. Where? you may ask...the LGBT Community Center in Room 312.

Stairway access to this room only...sorry, but will have wine and treats there to reward your effort. Let's share our stories, reminisce about stories past, and talk about if the process of coming out is ever complete.
