The Center hosts Tea Talks on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of the Month in Memorial Union Room 4576.

During Tea Talks, we offer loose leaf tea, tea bags, hot water and mugs, and snacks to enjoy while  we engage in discussion about a topic related to the LGBTQIA+ community.

Join us to learn more about the queer community and make your own delicious tea!
