Clubs & Discussion Groups
Gay, Gray & Beyond
2nd and 4th Thursdays, 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
GG&B is a discussion group for those fortunate enough to have arrived, that is, for those who know the obstacles, but also recognize that there have been joys. Those who look beyond the closet. Let's get together to consider our individual selves, our unique strengths and the nature of our ever-changing world. Sponsored by the LGBTQ 50+ Alliance. Visit the LGBTQ 50+ Alliance website for more information and resources.
