Trans support group 21.08

This summer’s last trans support group takes place on Monday, August 21st at 18:00, this time at Genialistide club. 😨 You will get a great chance to ask Eesti LGBT Association’s lived experience counsellor Eke all your questions about the transitioning process in Estonia. 🤩🌞

Everyone under the trans umbrella is welcome to join, as are those that want to get a better idea of what the transitioning process looks like in Estonia to know how to better support their friends-family-acquaintances. ☔️ We kindly ask any press not to attend the meeting. 🥰🏳️‍⚧️

If there is enough interest, we will figure out a way to broadcast the discussion over Zoom. 🤓 Please let us know if you would like to listen in online! 😇

🐸 The support group is moderated by volunteers from Behemoth’s centre and MTÜ Tartu LGBT+, and is made possible with the help of Eesti Transinimeste Ühing, Vikerruum and Genialistide Club. Our project (and this event!) is funded by the Active Citizens Fund of the EEA Grants, operated in Estonia by the Open Estonia Foundation in consortium with the Network of Estonian Non-profit Organisations. 🐝

See you on Monday! 🏳️‍⚧️

Outdoor sketching 16.08

This summer we’re having sketching-painting evenings on Wednesday nights that take place in the fresh air. Bring along your drawing supplies, show up and enjoy the company, summery Tartu and making art! 🌈

We’ll meet on August 16th next to Tartu St. Virgin Mary’s Dormition Cathedral. If you can, take along something to sit on as there aren’t many benches in the area. 🎨

If you need drawing or painting supplies, drop by Behemoth’s centre (Kalevi 15) on the same date between 16:00–18:00. We ask you to bring supplies with you, as the organizers won’t have enough for everyone on the spot. 🐾

In case you can’t attend this event, come to the next on August 23rd at 18:00! The location will be decided on during the previous event and we will let you know as soon as we can, so keep an eye out for that. 💜

Barbie club at Peemot

Barbie club on 5.08.

A capitalist icon or a symbol of liberation, a patriarchal ideal or the leader of an emancipatory movement? All that and many more will be the focus of our next book club meeting dedicated to Barbie! (That’s definitely not a book, but who cares).🎀

👠 In particular, we’ll discuss the film “Barbie” by Greta Gerwig and earlier media incarnations of the legendary doll. Our agenda includes examining how the representation of Barbie has changed over the years, whether Barbie can be considered feminist, and exploring her relation to the LGBTQ+ community.

💅🏻 See you on Saturday, August 5th, 16:00, at Behemoth’s center!
Dress-code: Barbie (if you like)

💜 The project (and this event!) is funded by the Active Citizens Fund of the EEA Grants, operated in Estonia by the Open Estonia Foundation in consortium with the Network of Estonian Non-profit Organisations.👸🏼🧁🛼
