About

Meet new friends, lovers, partners, roommates, platonic soulmates, and more at Queer Speed Date! Join us on the last Friday of every month for Queer Speed Date, a fun and safe space to create queer community in all its forms. Unlike hetero speed date, queer speed date celebrates all forms of relationships: friendships, platonic partnerships, romantic relationships, sexual partnerships, family groups, polycules, and more. How it works Read the book of the month, come to Under the Umbrella, and strike up conversation with new people! Purchasing the monthly book pick or even reading it is not required. This event also features the Queer Speed Date conversation cards to get the banter flowing. *This is an 18+ event* *Masks are required* Cost Buy a Book Ticket (comes with a copy of the book of the month from Under the Umbrella) OR Buy a sliding scale General Admission ticket from $5-10 (use the promo code speedslide for the $5 ticket) IMPORTANT NOTES Masks are required Water will be provided and additional snacks and drinks are available, which means individuals may be unmasked for short amounts of times while eating and drinking during the event.
