NON-BINARY: WHAT IS IT, AND HOW SHOULD I ACT? Online and Galena IL
May 26 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm CDT
FREE
You might have heard the term “non-binary” within the past few years, or perhaps “genderqueer” or the use of unfamiliar pronouns. This presentation shall explain these terms, what it means when someone claims them, and etiquette around non-binary people. K (they/them and she/her) is a hospice chaplain, wedding officiant, and textile artist. They have facilitated workshops for church groups that want to be more LGBTQIA2 inclusive but didn’t know where to start, and they were on the diversity committee for the Embroiderers Guild of America. In undergrad they interned at the Milwaukee Gay Arts Center and The Alliance School, an alternative high school for LGBTQIA2 kids who had been bullied out of their regular school. K is thrilled to contribute to Pride in Galena! Choose virtual or in-person attendance when registering. Either way you will be sent the Zoom link. Limited in-person seating; email [email protected] Live-stream also provided on Facebook without registration.
