LGBTQ+ SOC DISCUSSION: QUEER SCI-FI

6:30pm - 8pm | 23/11/2023 to 23/11/2023 | 5S.4.19

Why is sci-fi so inherently queer? How does the genre present gender in new ways? Do YOU ship Captain Kirk and Mr Spock? Join us for a discussion on queer sci-fi!

Please not that this event is open to members of the LGBTQ+ community and those who are questioning, and not allies.

Additionally, no photos will be taken at this event without prior informed consent.
