Community is built in big moments, and in small, playful ones.

Join us for a special Game Night edition of Brewing Connections, our intergenerational LGBTQ+ café where people of all ages gather to connect, laugh, and build relationships across generations. This time, we’re featuring Boston Gaymers, bringing games that spark collaboration, storytelling, and a little friendly competition.

Inspired by the spirit of oral history — a practice Queer History Boston uses to preserve and honor LGBTQ+ experiences — this evening invites us to share time, conversation, and joy in ways that feel natural and welcoming. Over games and light refreshments, we’ll celebrate the simple power of being together.

🎲 Games. Community. Connection.

Presented by: Ethos; Queer History Boston; LGBTQ Senior Housing; LGBTQ+ Elders of Color; and The City of Boston’s Mayor’s Office of LGBTQIA2S+ Advancement, Age Strong Commission, and Office of Youth Engagement and Advancement
