LFS Study Hall: BE GAY, DO CRIME starts this Thursday! 💖

This week’s session, 🎞️ BEYOND SUBTEXT 🎞️, looks at the evolution of sapphic representation on screen. We’ll chat about the journey from q***r *coded* films to REAL visibility, leading up to a truly groundbreaking OVERTLY sapphic 1985 film that helped change what q***r stories in film could look like.

Come join the conversation, watch the movie, and celebrate sapphic storytelling with us. 🫶🏽💜

Hard launching our first ever Music Video Night! Yes, just like the pregame ritual where q***r fans of pop come together to watch pop music videos at someone’s place! ✨

The theme for this one is 🩸GAY HORROR🩸. LFS Board Member VICTORIA SANDOVAL curated a playlist of iconically q***r music videos that give gay, horror, or both.

It’s all about the q***r community connecting over media we all know and love. 🫶🏽

🔪 ALSO, we’ll be there to answer questions about our upcoming SLASHER CAMP/help you fill out your apps!

Our deep-dive series exploring film history across decades, genres, and movements comes to a close with CINEMYTHOLOGY.

This week’s film & discussion are about the mythology of movie-making: how films/filmmakers are in constant conversation with the hands and the minds that make them, the time and place in which they’re made, and the entire history of cinema. 🎞️

Join us! You don’t need to have attended all the other screenings!!! All are welcome. 🫶

🏳️‍🌈🎥 We’re looking for ONE host for our June 12th PRIDE-themed Film Club Friday. The host and film *must* be LGBTQ+. If that sounds like you/up your alley, APPLY ASAP!! (Ofc, pride isn’t relegated to just one month; q***r hosts are always welcome and encouraged.🫀)
