Queer Women's Collective | September 2nd
Y’all know the drill: drinks, queers, questionable amounts of conversation, and probably someone saying “we should do this more often.” (Me when I see any of my friends!)
Come hang with us at Neff Brewing for le meetup! (It’s FRENCH!)
And if you haven’t made it to a meetup yet, consider this your sign. Come solo, bring a friend, or show up knowing absolutely no one. We’ll make room for you.
See you there, babes. Oh…and as always, QWC events are queer, trans and nonbinary inclusive. Allies are welcome, assholes are not!
Independently developed and led by Queer Women's Collective Tulsa.
Gallery Opening w/ Liz Cousins | September 4th
Twenty portraits. Twenty stories. One community.
Join us for the opening of Queer Tulsa, a new photo exhibit by Tulsa photographer Liz Cousins, featuring portraits and personal reflections from 20 LGBTQIA+ community leaders who have helped shape Tulsa’s creative and queer community.
Liz Cousins (she/her) has worked as a professional photographer in the Tulsa area for over two decades. Working in a mix of digital and film, she believes that photography is a way to record current culture for future historic preservation. Years before she found the ability to publicly join it, she began documenting Tulsa’s queer community as a way to support it. Her portrait work documents alternative lifestyles, performers, and those who live larger than life. Liz sells her art and photography as well as vintage wares in the Tulsa area under the brand Retrospective, and her day job involves working to support independent local artists in the Tulsa area.

Lyrics are projected. From the first tune to the last, soak in the camaraderie with hosts, Bill Nelson and Jason Sirois.
