Something changed at the Center, and we’re gagged! 👀✨

Our walls are getting a glow-up that matches who we are.

This new mural brings the Seattle LGBTQ+ Center’s refreshed identity into our space: bold color, movement, and a look rooted in the care, joy, and liberation that guides our work every day. It’s a fresh backdrop for a place where q***r and trans people can find services, resources, connection, and room to be themselves.

Rooted in Joy: Our Day at UTOPIA Fa’ato’aga 🌱

What does it look like when we care for the land and care for community growth together?

Our team recently spent the day at UTOPIA Washington’s Fa’ato’aga, learning about the land, the people who care for it, and how it creates space for q***r and trans Pacific Islander communities to connect, heal, and thrive.

Read about our visit and what we learned at gaycity.org/rooted-in-care-utopia-faatoaga.
