Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Before social media, before Pride festivals, and before many of the spaces we know today, LGBTQq+ people found ways to find each other, support each other, and build community.

Community does not happen by accident. It is created through connection, shared experiences, mutual support, and showing up for one another.

Join us for an interactive conversation about how we find our people, create welcoming spaces, and strengthen the communities we care about.

Whether you are looking for friendship, belonging, purpose, or ways to make a difference, this Skillery is for you.

Because somewhere over the rainbow is not just a place.

It's the people who help us find our way there.

June 28 • 11:00 AM • Mesker Park Shelter 15

Come share your story.
Come build community.
Come find your people.
Refreshments will be provided.
This Skillery is a part of the Somewhere Over The Rainbow Pride event hosted by Bright of Evansville, Crones Rising, Lezanga House, and River City Rising.
