NYCMER Queer Peers Group Meeting

Queer Peers has regular meetings, starting with LGBTQ History Month in October and ending with Pride Month in June. Join this meeting on December 18th, 2024!

Inspired by A Bintel Brief, Postal Service for the Dead, and NEMPN Holiday Postcard Exchange, join NYCMER members (and soon-to-be members) by writing holiday cards! 

The holiday season can be challenging for some LGBTQ+ community members. So, come together as a community to spread holiday cheer by letter-writing and collaging. Start a letter with the phrase, “Dear Queer Peer.” Stamps and art supplies will be provided.

Queer Peers seeks to provide a safer, braver space for LGBTQ+ museum educators, museum workers, and museum professionals. This NYCMER Peer Group is for connecting and networking, sharing ideas and best practices, building community, and developing programming about/for the LGBTQ+ community within museums and cultural institutions.

Monthly meetings are held at the Center for Jewish History. Since meetings are held after-work hours, attendees may bring food and drinks; however, attendees must clean up after themselves to be respectful of our host institution.

Sign up here to stay informed about NYCMER Queer Peers meetings and events.
