This month our First Thursdays Happy Hour is hosted by our friends at Kilkenny Pub.

Please note they are cash only and have an ATM on site.

Keene Pride Outdoors provides events that are both social and recreational. Hikes are planned for low-to-moderate physical intensity, avoiding significant elevation change and high mileage in favor of conditions that can facilitate social interaction for a broad portion of the community.  

Hikes occur throughout the year in different locations in the Monadnock Region. To find out more information about our next outing, please click the button below.

The Trans Community Support group is a collaboration of trans and non-binary community members that want to provide a safe and supportive space to those who identify as trans, non-binary, and trans-questioning folks in the Monadnock region. We will be meeting once a month either on the third or fourth Friday of that month. Here, we will gather in solidarity together as trans (and questioning) community to be with one another and discuss topics that uniquely affect the trans community. For the safety of all members of the group, you must register first to attend meetings.

These meetings are generally organized for ages 18+, however, there are some events put on by the Trans Community Support Group (TCSG) that are welcome to all ages. If you are under 18, you may still register below and we will direct you to trans resources and events made for all ages.

Trans Day of Visibility isnt limited to just one day in March! It can be every day of the year! Join us on Monday April 7th for a concert in Railroad Square with singer/songwriter Olivia Nied! There will be refreshments provided and we will have a letter writing campaign set up plus some incredible vendors! This event is free for all ages.

Join us for a free (donations accepted) screening of PARIS IS BURNING. An incredibly powerful documentary from 1990.

Where does voguing come from, and what, exactly, is throwing shade? This landmark documentary provides a vibrant snapshot of the 1980s through the eyes of New York City’s African American and Latinx Harlem drag-ball scene. Made over seven years, Paris Is Burning offers an intimate portrait of rival fashion “houses,” from fierce contests for trophies to house mothers offering sustenance in a world rampant with homophobia, transphobia, racism, AIDS, and poverty. Featuring legendary voguers, drag queens, and trans women—including Willi Ninja, Pepper LaBeija, Dorian Corey, and Venus Xtravaganza—Paris Is Burning brings it, celebrating the joy of movement, the force of eloquence, and the draw of community.

This event will include an introduction video by Princess Brittany.

A transgender teen finds an escape from the expectations and anxieties of his daily life in the world of street fashion in this personal, heartfelt story from a transgender manga creator.

AT THE SEAMS

High schooler Ryo knows he’s transgender, but he doesn’t have anyone to confide in about the confusion he feels. He can’t tell his best friend, who he’s secretly got a crush on, and he can’t tell his mom, who’s constantly asking why Ryo “dresses like a boy.” He certainly can’t tell Jin, the new transfer student who looks like just another bully… The only time Ryo feels at ease is when he’s wearing his favorite clothes. Then, and only then, the world melts away, and he can be his true self. One day, while out shopping, Ryo sees someone he didn’t expect: Jin. The kid who looked so tough in class has the same taste in fashion as him! At last, Ryo has someone he can open up to—and the journey ahead might finally give him a way to express himself to the world.
