What: Gay District Re-launch: Free Open Housewarming!
Where: The DC Center – 1318 U Street, NW
When: April 5th, 2013 7pm – 10pm
We will be hosting an Open Housewarming at the site of our new Friday night facilitated discussion, The DC Center! Located at, 1318 U Street, NW, The DC Center has been the home for resources to the LBGT community for many years and now they have opened their doors to us. As we are welcomed to our new home please join us for light fare and beverages. We hope to have attendees of past and present show up in full force and in lieu of gifts ( microwaves and toaster ovens ) please bring your favorite memories to share and help us fill the night with laughter….and of course whatever donations you can offer!
See you there!
Limited Supply Bonus!: For all participants of the Re-Launch: Open Housewarming that donate $10+ you will receive a ticket (valued at $20) for the upcoming Dancers Night at Bender Arena hosted by People Of The Beat! If you enjoy dance of any sort from classical interpretive, modern, to crump, tap and freestyle you’ll love what People of the Beat are putting together! If you need an excuse to get out and move then join them for a night to remember!
Starting in February, we will be collecting various toiletries, clothing items and metro farecards for Charlie’s Place, a nonprofit organization offering clothing, barber services, writing classes, space and resources for personal hygiene and other basic needs for DC’s homeless population.
Strong relationships with other social service providers such as Neighbor’s Consejo, Friendship Place, First Helping, Washington Legal Clinic for the Homeless and Department of Mental Health help Charlie’s Place provide additional social services, outreach services, legal services, health education and other supportive and empowering services.
To participate, simply round up any of the items listed after the jump that you may have—feel free to purchase a few if you don’t have any—and bring them with you to our weekly Friday meetings.
Please contact Justin with any questions.
