Queercon Mixer and Afterparty

[euro12 Member Find all posts View Profile Close euro12]

After great debate and the obligatory gay drama, Queercon 2007 has finally been planned.

This year, Queercon will involve two sub-events: a Mixer and an Afterparty.

The Mixer will be Friday at 4:00pm, in a location yet-to-be-determined but someplace chill with a bar. This is the opportunity for a GLBT hacker community to actually form; we can talk, drink, slip off to the bathroom for a quickie, whatever. During this mixer, I personally will be buying the first drink for anyone who convinces me they are a fellow queer (after all, I should get something for my money!) I'll post again once I know how it'll be easy to identify me; haven't planned the wardrobe yet.

The Afterparty will be Friday at 10:00pm, also in a location yet-to-be-determined. This will be our classic Queercon: loud music, dancing, glowy stuff, the usual. Last year we were in one of the Press Rooms, this year we're hoping for something a little more visible. Come get your groove on to some sick music like only the gays can do.

Anyone is welcome to attend either event, regardless of your preference.

Re: Queercon Mixer and Afterparty

For these locations...are you thinking on-site or off-site?

Fellow queers who are also goons (eg. myself) might have a preference, of course...but let me not stand in the way of progress (and drinking)

We are looking for onsite locations for both events. Probably just the mixer might get moved offsite since realistically we just need a classy-enough bar to hold the attention of a group of tinsel-toed hackers. But we've asked the organizers if there's a DC-operated space that might foot the bill. Hopefully we'll get lucky!

It should make it easier that we're not even looking to own the space, just want it known that we're there.

The Afterparty will almost certainly be onsite.
