SUMMARY:Dope Black Queers: The Forum
DESCRIPTION:Join us for The Forum x BQC Groups – a special collaboration between Dope Black Queers and Black Queers Connect! We’re excited to co-host this month’s forum with Black Queers Connect on the topic of Mourning Tradition. Come\, meet new people\, build a community\, and share your perspective. \nWhether you feel it has been purposefully eradicated\, a consequence of not being practiced enough\, or even something that feels at odds with your identity. How do we reckon with that\, and in what ways can we make space for ourselves in those traditions? \nThis is an event where we can really talk about the things that matter to us\, to raise questions and find answers both for ourselves and for others. Our specific life experiences give each of us different perspectives\, and that is what we want everyone to come and share\, because it is in the specifics that we can relate and build community. Whilst participation is encouraged\, no one has to share if they don’t want to. But the more interaction\, the more there is to learn. \nEventh highlights: \n\nGames\, open discussions\, connection and grounding\nFacilitators: Quamina + Chloe (DBQ) & Nic Farmer (BQC)\nSafer Space Holder: Julie-Anne Ntege will be present to offer support throughout the event.\n\nThis event is exclusively for Black LGBTQIA+ folks. (Allies can support by donating.) \nAbout Dope Black Queers (DBQ): Dope Black Queers is a space created by and for the Black LGBTQIA+ community to foster grounding\, connection\, and visibility. The Forum follows a Town Hall-style format — less like a panel\, more like an open discussion where every voice matters. \nAbout Black Queers Connect (BQC): Black Queers Connect empowers Black LGBTQ+ adults in the UK by creating inclusive spaces for connection and support. Through online and in-person Black Queer Connect Groups\,  events and resource-sharing\, BQC nurtures spaces where Black queer individuals can be seen\, centred\, and uplifted. \nAffordable teas & coffees are available for purchase on-site. \nAccessibility Info: Everything is on one level with no stairs to entrance. However bathroom is not wheelchair accessible\, but we have 2 locations near by (both 2 mins away) that are available for use. Can find full accessibility info here. \nPlease contact us for any other accessibility queries/questions x dopeblackqueers@gmail.com \nFind us on Instagram\, Threads\, Twitter\, and Facebook \n\n\n\n\n🌈Black Queer Connect Groups – House Rules \nHelp us reach our goal of building a supportive space\, one where people feel respected and heard\, please abide by these House Rules: \n\nNo Shaming: We’re here to uplift and support each other—no judgment or shaming.\nRespect Boundaries: Be mindful of others’ boundaries. Consent is key in all conversations.\nFocus on Actions\, Not People: If you disagree\, focus on the action or idea\, not on attacking the person.\nContainment: If you wish to discuss experiences that could be triggering to you\, only do so after providing a trigger warning and if you have the adequate support systems in place to manage any potential aftereffects. It’s essential to prioritize self-care and emotional well-being. Please note that BQC sessions are not a replacement for mental health services.\nStory Sensitivity: Every story is valid\, but not all are yours to share. Respect the privacy and experiences of others\, this includes not recording without permission.\nActive Listening: Engage in active listening. It’s not just about hearing; it’s about understanding.\nBe Open: Embrace different perspectives. Our diversity is our strength.\nAvoid Comparisons: Each person’s journey is unique—avoid comparing struggles.\nRespectful Disagreement: Disagree with respect and share thoughts constructively.\nMindful Language: Use inclusive\, considerate language. Avoid assumptions or exclusionary terms.\nNo Bullying or Hate Speech: Discrimination in any form will not be tolerated.\nGolden Rule: Treat others with the respect you want for yourself.\nContent Warnings: If discussing sensitive or potentially triggering topics\, provide content warnings beforehand\, so everyone can prepare and decide if they wish to continue.\nRespect Pronouns: Use correct pronouns. If unsure\, ask or use neutral pronouns.\nAcknowledge Identities: Respect each person’s name\, pronouns\, and identity. Avoid assumptions.\nSpeak to Moderators: If any issues arise\, approach the event organisers or moderators privately. Feedback forms will also be available.\nPhysical Space: Be mindful of personal space. Ask before initiating physical contact\, and respect requests for space.\n\nBy attending this event\, you agree to uphold these House Rules\, ensuring a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere for everyone. Failure to respect these guidelines will lead to further action.

They are trans/genderqueer and disabled and their aim is to make these workshops accessible for all. \nWe welcome everybody regardless of orientation\, gender\, age\, race\, ethnicity – all we require is an open mind\, a desire to try\, respect for pronouns and a wish to perform! Doesn’t matter if you are a newbie or pro\, just wear some comfy clothes and come along. \nAbout the organiser: \nBeckah (they/them) is a theatre maker/facilitator and genderqueer person.

SUMMARY:Kings for Life (Drawing) Class
DESCRIPTION:A Drag King/Thing Life Drawing Workshop for artists to experience drag in a new way and drag artists to gain a new skill in life modelling.\n\n\nJoin us for an exciting life drawing workshop dedicated to providing a platform for Drag Kings/Things to model and offering artists a unique experience in capturing the essence of drag through art. \nOur inclusive sessions cater to all skill levels\, whether you’re a novice or a seasoned artist like the next David Hockney! Each pose is timed\, and we may suggest different drawing techniques to inspire and warm up your artistic flow. \nWhat You’ll Need: \n\nDrawing Surface: Get creative—paper\, an iPad\, or cardboard boxes!\nDrawing Materials: Anything goes—pencils\, charcoal\, pastels\, or paints. It’s a perfect opportunity to experiment and try something new!\n\nPose breakdown will be 4 x 5 minutes\, 2 x 10 minutes\, 3 x 15 minutes\, and 1 x 20 minutes (as time allows). \nCome along\, settle in and drawing starts just after 5.30pm. \nPlease bring your own materials (Although we generally have a few pads and pencils on hand in case!). All skill levels\, genders and orientations are welcome. \nImportant: Recording of the session is not permitted. \nAs with all our sessions\, Nudity is not part of this workshop. It is up to the model’s comfort level when posing how much or little clothing they will wear and being mindful of other patrons in the space\, as it will not be private. \nOur main priority is to create a safe environment for the talent. \nThat said\, sometimes sessions do veer towards the erotic/kink based on the model. We ask that you respect the model’s privacy by NOT taking any photos or recordings during the session. \nTicket sales contribute to paying our models\, covering hire fees\, and ensuring we can continue providing these fantastic sessions. \nFollow us on Instagram for more updates and to build a vibrant\, creative community together! \nAbout the facilitator \nMatt David (they/them) is a queer artist and founder of Kings for Life (Drawing). \nKings for Life (Drawing) is a workshop allowing artists to experience drag in a few ways and be able to draw new and exciting subjects\, as well as drag kings/things to gain new skills in life modelling and gain work outside of just the nightlife scene. \nThey have facilitated multiple creative workshops\, including Self Portrait workshops for Positive East\, alongside making their own artwork with a focus on portraiture and life drawing. \nAccessibility \nThe Centre’s accessibility statement is here. \nCovid-19 safety at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre \nTo keep our community safe\, we ask that all visitors do not visit the centre if they are feeling any Covid-19 symptoms including headache\, fever\, sore throat\, consistent cough and chills. \nMasks and hand sanitiser are available free of charge. \nFor current information on Covid please visit the NHS website. \nDonate to the CentreWe rely on donations to ensure that the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre can keep its doors open for years to come. \nTo donate or become a Friend of the Centre\, visit our website.
