QRIB Hangouts

These hangouts are a collaboration between the Willow River Centre and Spectrum's BRIQ House hosts to foster safer spaces for queer individuals who identify as Racialized, Indigenous, and/or Black. Every second Friday of the month, the community gets together to do activities (ex. crafts, karaoke, outdoor fires, poetry, boardgames, etc). Events are free with light refreshments, though capped at 30 people, so we recommend RSVPing! This is a sacred space so allies are welcome upon invitation, and are encouraged to donate (ex. $5) to the Willow River Centre to support safer queer racialized spaces locally. If you'd like to support online, go to: https://www.landbackcamp.com/support or you can pay your donation at the door. This donation will go towards fostering safer queer racialized spaces. See you there!
