Do you want to know more about homosexuality?
Do you have a gay or lesbian child/family member and want to find out more information but don't know where to find it or how?
What is this "gay lifestyle" that people tell you about?
Come to "a community affair" organized by SAFE and Pelangi Pride Centre, to
find out all the information you need!
Pelangi Pride Centre will give a short session on Homosexuality - Facts &
Myths.
Other LGBTQ community groups that reach out to the lesbian, gay,
bisexual and transgendered communities in Singapore, will be there to tell
you about the activities they offer to the community and also how they play
an important role in the support and self-development of our gay family
members and friends.
Following the presentation, you will get the chance to mingle and chat with
supportive parents and affirming counselors. There is also an extensive
library of gay-related non-fiction/ fiction books and resources for browsing
and borrowing.
This event is organised for those new to the LGBTQ community, especially
straight family and friends who want to find our more about this community
in Singapore. They will be given priority to this event.
We look forward to welcoming you at "a community affair" on Saturday, 9 June 2007 from 4-6pm at Bianco, above Mox Bar & Café at 21 Tanjong Pagar Road #04-01. Sign up today by sending your RSVP to safesingapore [at]gmail.com. If you have further questions, please call Susan at 9624-7192.
