### 🌿 About Connect & Cultivate for Gay men of Color
Connection hits different in person — especially when you’re surrounded by people who truly see you.
Join us for Connect & Cultivate LA, a powerful in-person gathering for gay and queer men of color looking to grow their professional network, build authentic community, and deepen their sense of purpose and belonging in Los Angeles.
This is not your typical networking event. No awkward elevator pitches. No forced small talk. Just real conversations, community-rooted strategy, and a space where your voice and vision matter.
Whether you're an emerging leader, creative, entrepreneur, or nonprofit changemaker — this event is for you.
