June 16 @ 5:00 pm – 7:30 pm
June is Pride Month and you’re invited to celebrate with us!
Tuesday, June 16 we will be screening the movie “You’re Great the Way You Are.” Whether you identify as 2SLGBTQ+ or consider yourself a friend and ally, all are welcome. The doors open at 5:00 p.m. with the movie beginning at 5:15 p.m.
Popcorn will be provided, but attendees are welcome to bring their own snacks. Participation looks different for everyone and all forms are accepted. Attendees may watch the movie quietly, stepping out for breaks if needed, or simply enjoy the shared space in your own way.
Each week, we offer a “third space”—a place separate from home or work or school where there is no obligation to spend money on food or beverages—to members of our community.
Drop in and use our space to unwind or recharge, with no pressure to engage in structured activities. We have several rooms and spaces available: a quiet lounge, computer desks, hang out sofas–you choose. It’s your time to use your way.
The rest of our space remains open for people who don’t want to participate in structured activities. We provide flexible seating options, focus tools, and adjustable lighting options in an effort to make our space more welcoming and inclusive to those who wish to spend time in it.
Suggested activities:
- Socializing: Chat with others, make new connections, or catch up with friends
- Using Computers: Access the internet, complete personal tasks, or explore hobbies online. Use our computers and wifi or bring your own device and connect via our network
- Relaxing: Sit quietly, read, listen to music with headphones, or just enjoy the calm space
- Independent Work: Bring personal projects, homework or studying you may need to do, or use the time to focus on tasks
- Unstructured Activities: puzzles, sketching, journaling, or engaging in other personal hobbies
- Exploring Resources: Learn about other programs, events, or services Sinneave offers
- Simply Being: Spend time in the space without any specific activity, just enjoying the presence of others without any expectations to engage
To ensure a welcoming and safe space for all users, please read over the Rules of the Space before you arrive:
- Check-In is Required: Everyone signs in upon arrival
- No Alcohol or Drugs: This is a substance-free space for everyone’s safety and comfort
- Respectful Content and Behavior: No engagement with explicit content and all interactions should be respectful
- Noise Levels: Keep volume moderate to accommodate diverse activities
- No formal supervision provided: Attend and engage independently
