WeHo Reads: Creating Queer Families and Communities

  • Date: October 09, 2024 6:30 PM - 8:00 PM  
  • Location: Online Event
    www.weho.org/wehoreads
The City of West Hollywood presents authors of interest to the West Hollywood community with its free WeHo Reads series. In celebration of National Coming Out Day, we gather authors and poets to discuss coming out and creating queer families and communities. Participants will reflect on the evolution of coming out with the rise in equality and visibility of LGBTQ+ individuals and families. 

Our guests include Meliza Bañales, poet and author of the 90s coming-out/coming-of-age novel Life Is Wonderful, People Are Terrific (Ladybox Books 2015), which was a 2016 Lambda Literary Finalist; Lane Igoudin, author of the foster-adoptive memoir A Family, Maybe (Ooligan Press, Portland State University 2024); and Hazel Kight Witham, author of the memoir-in-verse The Truth About Secrets (Strikethrough Press 2024).

Produced by Bookswell.
