Queer Night Out East: Halloween Party
Riverhead Ciderhouse, 2711 Sound Avenue, Calverton, NY, USQueer Night Out is hitting the road! First stop: Riverhead Ciderhouse with a Halloween party. Costumes ENCOURAGED!
Starting this October, QNO will rotate through different towns across eastern Suffolk County, bringing queer joy + safe spaces to even more of our community. Join us for a once-a-month low-key social mixer to meet, socialize, mingle, and network with the LGBTQIA+ community. We will also feature a Fall Creative Fair with a spotlight on queer artists and vendors, as well as queer-affirming businesses.
Bring friends or make new ones. Icebreakers and games are on tables for self-led activities. Hang with your crew, or introduce yourself to new folks and invite them to sit with you. We stan a welcoming environment and want every gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, culture, neurotype, and ally to feel welcome in this space.
RESERVATIONS REQUESTED. We are continually surprised with anywhere between 75-100+ folks in attendance. For the venue to plan appropriately, please reserve by making a donation of any amount to Queerli. PLEASE RESERVE HERE.
Your donation will not include any food or beverages at Queer Night Out. Donations go towards Queerli's nonprofit operational costs, future events, and our new initiative to provide financial assistance for LGBTQIA+ community members in need facing socioeconomic barriers to gender affirming care, second-parent adoption, legal name changes, or relocation from unaffirming homes.
$5 - ๐ฆ๐๐ด๐ด๐ฒ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ผ๐ป๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: This amount allows us to sustain our events and cover operational costs.
$10 - ๐๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐๐ป๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐บ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: This amount is for those in our communities who can afford to give a little extra, supporting us as we work to offer more experiences and safer spaces for the LGBTQIA+ communities.
$1 - ๐๐พ๐๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ ๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐: This end of the scale is for folks who are experiencing financial hardship and would benefit from the support of the community. Queerli events should be accessible to all people, regardless of finances, and we never want money to be a barrier to your attendance. If this tier is not accessible for you, enter an amount outside of the scale that is sustainable for you or contact us via email (hello@queerli.org) or DM @queerli.safespace. No one will be turned away due to a lack of funds.๐๐ฅ๐ง๐๐ฆ๐ง๐ฆ + ๐ฉ๐๐ก๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฆ
