What we’re about
ALL BLACK LIVES MATTER. STOP AAPI HATE. END ANTI-SEMITISM. CHOOSE LOVE. The Canandaigua (CDGA) Queer Lit Book Club has been welcoming readers since 2018. In partnership with Wood Library, we are an inclusive community of readers who meet bi-monthly in a hybrid format to discuss LGBTQAI2S+ books and/or books by LGBTQAI2S+ authors. Representation matters. Join the conversation!
The Canandaigua Queer Lit Book Club respectfully acknowledges that we operate on land, which is the territory of the Onöndowa’ga:’ (Seneca) Nation, a member of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy. Learn more with Ganondagan and the National Indigenous Women's Resource Center.
