Join us at 7:00 PM EDT on Saturday, February 3 when our guests will include:

By working with the Bureau of General Services – Queer Division, we are able to make OUTspoken more than a New York City literary event. We expect many people to attend in-person, and many writers to read in-person, but this series will also be open to everyone in the world (audience and writers alike) with an Internet connection.

Come by the Bureau to meet the authors or join remotely to hear some of the best queer literature being written today. Visit the Bureau’s website for more information and access to their YouTube channel for remote viewing.
