SpeQtrum: Queer Histories and Transgressive Origins

SpeQtrum, in partnership with SFAF, will be hosting a series of peer-led discussion groups at Strut starting October 24th from 12pm-2pm at 470 Castro St. on the 3rd floor. These discussions will occur monthly from October to February and cover a range of topics that center queerness, sex-positivity, and community. Our first topic will focus on queer history told through the personal stories of four special guests: Graylin Thornton, Mama Kat Rose, Shadow Morton, and Ms. V.

While these discussions will be facilitated by staff and center the lived experience of our special guests, we would like to create a conversational atmosphere that encourages questions from our attendees.

This is your chance to commune with legends, leaders, and mentors whose experience in LGBTQ+ communities can help inform us of our past, connect us in the present, and prepare each other for our future.

Whether you’re green to the queer scene or a seasoned lover of leather, this intergenerational event is for you!
