Glittery Crafternoon

Date: On break for the summer | Suspended
Registration: Not required.

Join NG Pride for Glittery Crafternoons!!!

A safe public space for 2SLGBTQIA+, open to all ages, of which allies, family, and friends of the 2SLGBTQIA+ are welcome.

A free drop-in to help people of different ages share community, crafts and space to combat isolation and foster healthy lasting relationships within our community. Join other crafty people to share casual conversation and your crafts with one another. It is not a class; NG Pride doesn’t plan on teaching.

People are expected to bring a craft that will hold their focus for the duration of the session, things like knitting, sketching, crocheting, and needlework – portable non-messy projects of all sorts, that each person brings with them and works on individually.

*All children must be accompanied by an adult.
