465 Collective

THURSDAYS are 4 Queers & Comrades @ 465 Collective

Queerly Complex (@queerlycomplex) and Queer Art Club (@queer_art_club) are pairing up to gather trans-queer-nonbinary Bay Area comrades in a weekly offering spanning generations, identities, expressions, and communities. 15 January to 28 May 2026.

<p>We’re selecting a few crowd-sourced texts to read aloud &amp; make meaning of together. We read for collective understanding rather than speed. So dust off that queer / trans / gender / race / class / disability theory you haven’t been able to get through &amp; let’s tackle it together!
