Hello!

This is Adam, your new publicity chair for the 2012-2013 school year! Wooooo! I am taking over for Anaiz and hopefully this transition is not troublesome to our followers.
Onto announcements!

Pink Kitty!This Thursday, April 26th Irvine Queers will be heading over to Pink Kitty, the only sex shop in Irvine. The store owner will give a brief workshop/presentation and we will spend some time browsing/shopping. There will also be a 20% discount to those that go with Irvine Queers! If you need a ride meet at the flagpoles at 5:30 pm. Click here to find the facebook event.

Drag Show!Interested in performing in, giving ideas to, or just having some association with Irvine Queers’ 4th annual Drag Show? Then you should definitely come to the meeting today and every Wednesday held in SST 220B at 7:00 pm…which is roughly an hour away. Hope to see you there!

AV Pride!
The Arollo Vista housing community will be hosting a Pride event next Friday May 4th! It will go from 5:00-7:00 pm. Go support!

So I think those are all the announcements for this week. If I missed any of them, send me a message and I will add it.

Welcome Back 4/3 Update

This past Tuesday we gathered in Newport Beach A. We had several fun activities. Some of us learned about cars, others about fruits, heck we even learned about some tasty beverages.

• Isabel Bogarin needs volunteers for a photography project in which she will be focusing on the LGBTQIA community, along with labels and identity. She will be taking 3 portraits of each person. Each image will be submitted to Catalyst Gallery so she can host her first solo gallery showing. She needs at least 13 volunteers.  If interested please contact her. (ibogarin@uci.edu)
