Fifteen years ago, Good Time Girls founders Sara and Marissa went looking for the women who forged their own path through Bellingham's old west days, and ended up changing the course of this city's history in the process. Five years later, that walking tour became a documentary. 

This fall, they’re celebrating both anniversaries, and want dxto see you there. They’re putting the short film back on screen for one night only — Thursday, September 17th at 6:00pm — followed by a panel discussion with director Dan Hammill and the Good Time Girls themselves.

This is a group for Rainbow Refugees, 2SLGBTQIA+ people who have moved here from red areas. We will discuss things like being new to Bellingham, dealing with moving/starting over, survivor’s guilt, and getting used to being in a safer area.

The Intentional Living and Dying Well group was inspired by the heartfelt and transformative conversations we had during a Rainbow Elders led book club focused on The Art of Dying Well by Katy Butler. We found it invaluable to be able to discuss living according to our values through life changes, aging, and, ultimately, death. And we appreciate how helpful it is to discuss navigating life choices with a group of friends who also understand what it is to be queer in today's America.

The BQC is partnering with the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services to bring culturally relevant information to the queer community about the WA Cares Fund.

Come learn about what the benefits of this new program are and how to qualify for them. Benefits can be used for any covered services from a WA Cares provider (friends and family providing care can become providers and get paid for their work) including care in your home or a facility, home modifications, home-delivered meals, adaptive equipment, and more.

The area we will be exploring has abundant birds (including owls), as well as beavers, muskrats, bats, and coyotes! Come ready to have fun in the darkness, make new friends, and appreciate all things spooky with other nature loving queer folks!
