coming out in middle school!
September 23, 2009queer young adult writing group starts tonight at 7 p.m.!
September 23, 2009do lgbtq identified young adults feel represented in what they read? if so, what is that representation telling them about themselves? our new group at smyrc hopes to open up this conversation to portland’s queer youth, increasing both media literacy and community.
our friends twig and erin from Bare Bones Press will be leading a discussion around queer representation in young adult literature, and then facilitating some writing exercises for the participants.
if you are lgbtq identified and between the ages of 14 and 23, come join us tonight for the first meeting!
