A book reading and talk back

Please Register for event as seating is limited. Mask required for entry.
Book Details
Dumond wrote Queerly Beloved to prove that queer stories can – and should! – have happy endings, and says, “not enough queer stories have been told in mainstream media, especially queer stories with happy endings, especially queer stories in red states with happy endings. Queerly Beloved shows a queer community in Tulsa that isn’t just surviving, but thriving."
