QueerAmore aims to create a comfortable space to gather and talk about issues related to being bisexual, pansexual, bi-curious and questioning. QueerAmore takes a fresh look at the challenges, rewards and temptations of exploring and enjoying your sexuality.

We’ll have discussions on achieving healthy relationships based on positive communication, understanding bisexuality/pansexuality in today’s world, and participate in activities that foster openness and acceptance of sexuality. So even if you know who you are, or just figuring out yourself, come chat about it with us.

QueerAmore meets every first Thursday and third Monday of the month from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Ages 18+
