November is a busy month at ICS Center. This article summarises the community activities planned for the month, together with the information you need to know when registering to take part. The schedule may change depending on practical conditions, so please check the official channels again before each event.
The activities are designed for different groups within the LGBTI+ community, from people new to exploring to those who have taken part for many years. Each session has a relaxed conversation space, and nobody is required to share anything.
Activities planned for the month
During the month, ICS plans to hold several main activities, including open themed conversations, a skills-sharing class and a community meet-up at the end of the month. Details on times and venues will be updated on the events page.
- Open themed conversations: each session lasts about two hours and has a facilitator.
- Skills-sharing class: focuses on communication and listening within the family and at work.
- Community meet-up: an informal session for members to get to know one another.
Registration and eligibility
Most activities are free of charge. As places are limited, please register early through the events page or by emailing nv.gro.sci@ofni. The organising team will confirm your place within two working days.
We encourage participants to arrive on time and to respect the general rules of each session, including keeping confidential the stories shared in the safe space.
What to prepare before you come
You do not need to prepare much. An open mind and readiness to listen are enough. If you have particular access needs, please let us know when you register so the organising team can arrange things accordingly.
Pride and equality are nurtured when we have a place to meet one another sincerely.
Tips for newcomers
If this is your first time taking part, you may like to arrive fifteen minutes early to get to know the space and the facilitator. You can also choose to sit next to someone you know, or move around freely during the session.
After each activity, ICS will send a short summary to participants who have agreed to receive information. The summary only includes general content, with no names or personal images.
See you in November.
