Ribbon cutting and reception set for Tuesday
A ribbon cutting and reception is set for April 14.
The Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Community Center of Baltimore and Central Maryland (1000 Cathedral St., Baltimore) holds its grand reopening on Tuesday from 6-8 p.m.
The reopening will include a ribbon-cutting ceremony. There will also be free wine and cheese. Although the center moved to the Waxter Center more than a year ago, they never had a kickoff event there but they’ve received new clearances, so they’re having their grand opening now.

Washington Improv Theatre hosts ‘The Queeries’
Event to celebrate queer DMV talent and pop culture camp
The Washington Improv Theatre, along with the Mayor’s Office of LGBTQ Affairs and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington DC, will team up to host “The Queeries!” on Friday, April 26 at 9:30 p.m. at Studio Theatre.
The event will celebrate Queer DMV talent and pop culture camp. With a mixture of audience-submitted nominations and blatantly undemocratically declared winners, “The Queeries!” mimics LGBTQ life itself: unfair, but far more fun than the alternative.
The event will be co-hosted by Birdie and Butchie, who have invited some of their favorite bent winos, D.C. “D-listers,” former Senate staffers, and other stars to sashay down the lavender carpet for the selfie-strewn party of the year.
Tickets are just $15 and can be purchased on WITV’s website.
