Registration required.

Wellness Programs

LGBT Network Queens LGBT Center

A one-time workshop led by a licensed art therapist that uses creativity, conversation, and reflection to explore emotions, identity, strengths, and stress. This isn't about artistic skill—it's about the process and what you discover along the way. In an LGBTQ-affirming space, you'll take part in a guided creative activity and group discussion. No experience needed; just come ready to create, reflect, and connect.

Community Focused

Hive Mind Books & Coffee Shop

Thinking about getting tattooed on HRT or another gender-affirming care (GAC) process? Hive Mind Books & Coffee Shop in Bushwick is hosting an afternoon of tattoo consultations and T4Tatt interviews with Hatch Rabbit Tattoo, where you can ask questions and share your own experience. It runs 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM on Saturday, October 24th, 2026, and it's a low-key chance to get real answers over coffee.
