Join us on Monday, October 19th from 6-8PM for another Sapphic Salon experience!
Bringing together thought leaders, researchers and cultural authorities, the Sapphic Salon is an immersive learning experience for Black q***r women and our allies to engage with cutting edge Black thought leadership and research. This month, the speakers are focused on deconstruction and the work we learn from Octavia Butler, the tradition of Black, femmes in hospitality and the tools and skills we use to finance our future and where we learned them.
Each presenter will leave the audience with a new outlook on classical and contemporary Black literature, art and music. The experts will each have 10 minutes to present their work or facilitate discussion. The audience will be able to ask questions both to the speakers and other members of the crowd. Everyone will enjoy a night of food, drinks, vendors and thought, and leave with new skills, connections and perspectives on approaching the world and appreciating Black, q***r scholarship
