Bi+ Philly Inaugural Meet Up

What is Bi+ Philly?

Bi+ Philly offers an opportunity for members of Philadelphia’s Bi+ community to come together once a month and rejoice in a shared element of identity. The Bi+ community is the single largest group within the LGBTQ+ community. But we often lack visibility, resources, and a space to be our entire selves. The term Bi+ is meant to be as inclusive as possible. Whether you identify as bisexual, pansexual, queer, fluid, same gender loving, heteroflexible, Two Spirit, or any other non-binary sexuality, you are welcome here. People of all gender identities are encouraged to attend. Bi+ Philly is a celebration of diversity, inclusion, and innovation.

These community gatherings provide a space to be visible and vulnerable. Here, you will find social support, identification, belonging, and a whole lot of laughter (Bring your bi+ puns!). We meet every third Thursday of the month for informal, fun-filled, low-pressure gatherings. The emphasis is on cultivating meaningful friendships and uplifting social networks. Come as you are, be who you are.

Organizers: Angélique “Angel” Gravely (she/her), Emilyn Kowaleski (they/them), Daralyse Lyons (she/her)

What can you expect from this inaugural meet up?

After some introductory icebreakers, you’ll have an opportunity to engage in meaningful conversations in a virtual space. We’ll kick off this community gathering through zoom and transition to in-person events when gathering restrictions lift and it’s safe to do so. Join us for connection and conversation. Check in with yourself and others and begin to create a vibrant network of other Philly-based Bi+ folx.

The zoom link will be emailed to attendees the week of the event. Closed Captioning will be available.
