QTalk

QTalk

QTalk is a monthly open discussion group that brings people together to delve into issues and topics that affect the LGBTQIA2S+ community and our allies. This isn’t a new group. In fact, the first community discussion groups happened in the 90s and were well attended. The format is intended to be informal and affirming, where perspectives and individual experiences are respected.

Meetings are held every 3rd Monday of the month, 7 PM at The Hub — 321 S. 1st Street, Bismarck, ND, 58504 — in the small meeting room.
