SUMMARY:The Queer Connection
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this group will be to provide a private and safe space for individuals who identify as being part of the LGBTQ+ community. This space is specifically for the LGBTQ community and therefore it will be closed. \nThis group will have various topics of discussion and identity intersecting with disability will be of the primary focus. \nIn the future there will be potential space carved out for guest speakers and individuals of the community to come in and talk about themselves\, their experiences and or the work they do in the community. \nThis group is so that individuals of marginalized communities can come together over common identity and talk about their experiences and learn from each other as well.

After the showing\, we will have a Q&A with the stars of the film.\n\n\n\nThis event is a collaboration of Disability Network Southwest Michigan and Disability Network Washtenaw Monroe Livingston. \nFlyer:  Film Festival Flyer 2025
