The Retreat

This Thursday 11th June from 7pm - 9pm, Proud Poems happening as part of Pop-Up Pride Dorchester. Now in it's third year, and expertly hosted by Naomi, you can bring a poem of your own, read one by an LGBTQ+ writer or just come to listen and enjoy.

It's always one of those evenings that nourishes the soul and fills you with hope. Q***r voices need to be heard louder than ever right now to drown out the bad stuff and show that we stand together proudly as a community.

So join with us to celebrate Pride through Poetry, love, humanity and compassion 🧡🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️🌈

The evening is free but donations are welcome for Space Youth Project.
