We’re planning several Always Welcome events the next few weeks: a Transit Museum tour, a queer campfire nature walk, a concert, and chats over drinks and food!
Join new and old friends at our Always Welcome munches. Events are drop-in/drop-out; hang out for as long as you wish. Dress casual (and weather appropriate). No RSVP required. You’re invited, and you can bring a friend. Look for a Eutopia Rising sign!
Open to anyone, whether or not you’re an approved Lunar Voyager!
