Next Week at the Center
- Monday, 12/3:
- Perpetual Transition, 6:00p-7:30p: Perpetual Transition is a support and social group for transgender people in the Memphis metropolitan area that has been meeting since 2005. Perpetual Transition is safe and confidential, and is open to transgender people of any variety. For more information email Kayla Gore, Transgender Services Specialist.
- Love Sessions: Session 1, 7:00p-8:00p: These sessions are built to open the door to conversations that go untouched. What energy am I bringing into the relationship? What are my boundaries and how do I efficiently communicate them with my partner? What does a toxic relationship look like? How do I pick up on red flags? Through these sessions there will be conversations not lectures about how to provide yourself with some TLC and making sure you are at your best to be good partner for your next or current relationship. This will be brought to you by the Healing Rainbow which is a collaboration of agencies in Memphis, TN to help bring awareness and education to the LGBTQ Community. For more information, please contact the organizer, visit the Facebook event, or click here.

- Tuesday, 12/4:
- Colorcopia: Art Event for LGBTQ Seniors, 10:00a-11:00a: Colorcopia is an art class put on by artists from the Dixon Gallery and Gardens.
