Laney Queers Brunch
Wednesday, Oct. 10 @ 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in SC-401A
Brunch was championed by gays in New York City (circa, the late 70s). It was a way to wake up late after a long night at the club and still be able to enjoy a fancy breakfast (and lunch). Brunch was also popularized by the HBO show “Sex & The City,” starring Sarah Jessica Parker and Cynthia Nixon (the red-headed, Harvard lawyer who in real life is a lesbian and is currently running for Governor of New York). Join Laney Queers for the celebration of this sophisticated tradition. Food will be served (of course).

Thursday, Oct. 11 @ 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. @ the Laney Quad
Everyone is welcome to stop by the tables and learn more about the LGBTQ community and the new student club on campus – Laney Queers. There will be balloons, a chance to have your Coming Out Day photo taken, music, and other cool activities.

Night @ The Museum
Friday, Oct. 12 @ Meet at flag pole at 5 p.m.
Join us for an evening at “Friday Nights at the Oakland Museum.” We’ll meet at Laney and walk together to the museum. We’ll stop by the food trucks, take a tour of the museum, and more!
