Whether you’re looking for community, conversation, or simply some company, this group is here for you.
However, the Silver Sapphics would like to open this Saturday meeting up for sapphics of all ages! This is such an important time to build community across generations so we hope to make this a monthly get together.
Sapphic is a broad, umbrella term that typically describes women, nonbinary people, and feminine-aligned individuals who experience attraction to other women or femmes. The word is inspired by the ancient Greek poet Sappho, who wrote emotional and romantic poetry about women from the island of Lesbos.
