September is Pride Month, and QUT is celebrating.
Get involved, educate and celebrate the communities and cultures of students, staff and the Brisbane community who identify as lesbian; gay; bisexual; transgender; intersex; queer or questioning; asexual, agender or aromantic; and those who identify as other diverse genders and sexualities (LGBTIQA+).
Attend an event, look out for content across the HiQ digital walls and claim a free rainbow lanyard at the QUT bookshops throughout the month of September.
What's happening...
Grab your lunch and join the Queer Collective to dine alfresco, meet some new faces and celebrate pride outside this September. Lawn games and some light snacks will be about also.
