Queer
Our First Session(s)
Monday, September 29, 2014 Filed in: Session Recaps
Two different generations of LGBTQ people met separately for Bridging the Gap’s first session(s) of 2014.
On September 27th, older LGBTQ adults aged 60 and up and younger LGBTQ adults between the ages of 19 and 27 convened during two different first sessions. It’s a tradition to hold separate, age-defined sessions during the first day of Bridging the Gap to give people from each generation an opportunity to meet each other, begin to form relationships, and air perceptions about the other generation in a safe space before both generations come together for our second session. This year’s first session was a wonderful mix of fresh-faced new members and familiar friends from the past. The sessions were led by facilitators Timothy Connell, Kevin Ray and Sherry Teitelbaum.

Bridging the Gap Returns
Tuesday, September 02, 2014 Filed in: What's New?
Bridging the Gap is back for our 4th year! We are currently recruiting participants for our free project. It is an intergenerational theater project designed to spark conversations across the LGBTQ generation gap by creating original theater. Using theater games and improvisation, group members will develop and perform an original show. No prior experience with theater is necessary to participate. The project meets on Saturday afternoons beginning September 27th. It is open to people between the ages of 18 and 25 or 60 and up who self-identify as LGBTQ.
