UTAH: SALT LAKE CITY TRANS MOVIE CLUB
Trans movie night is a regular gathering of trans friends in the Salt Lake area who come together to watch and discuss movies! If this sounds like a match for you, they are open to newcomers coming to this special relay-themed movie afternoon. If you’re interested in attending, email Laurel Hiatt (laurel dot hiatt at gmail dot com) for event details and address.
NEW MEXICO: Burrito Brigade Mutual Aid Community Cook
The Burrito Brigade is a growing mutual aid network in Santa Fe, NM. Every week, we get together to cook and distribute free burritos, hot drinks, and essential supplies to our unhoused and food-insecure neighbors. Newcomers are welcome at our Saturday evening community cook—come on out and help us roll some breakfast burritos! Email Kiera O'Brien (kierobrien at gmail dot com) for event details and address.
Tucson POWER Dinner
POWER (Powerful, Outstanding Women Engaged in Resilience) is a vibrant network of women, femme trans, non-binary Tucsconians, active in Southern Arizona since 2013 (and in Washington D.C. before that). While they connect and support each other in a number of ways, their core ritual is a monthly dinner, which in July will also double as Arizona’s Relay Event. If you’re interested in coming (again, newcomers very much welcome but please respect the space’s identity as being for women, femme, trans and non-binary folks), please RSVP here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeFxDWy3b3cuGQE59DWiCmc3iAZHSuR3NQhXVMKLuewpDUn6A/viewform
