Last night a small but mighty group of around twen

Last night a small but mighty group of around twenty community members braved the night’s bitter wind to come together and grieve, and to remember - not only our LGBTQ+ community members that were lost or injured in Colorado Springs this weekend, but also for the over 300 violent deaths incurred on our trans and gender non-conforming family over the last decade, with 32 occurring this year so far.

We are deeply grateful for the safe and uniquely life-affirming culture that Provincetown has built and shares with all of our visitors (who are over 70% LGBTQ+,) but we also recognize that with each story like Q Club or Pulse our collective sense of safety and concept of safe spaces are eradicated. Here in Provincetown we will continue to Say Gay (and Say Trans) as loudly as we possibly can, and find new ways to welcoming queer folks from other parts of the country who will be strengthened by radical self-expression celebrated here on the streets of Provincetown.

Thank you to @womencrafts for organizing last night’s vigil.

On today, Transgender Day of Remembrance, we are deeply saddened in Provincetown to wake up to the loss of at least five members of the LGBTQ+ community. Our hearts go out to our queer family in Colorado Springs and to Q Club, where they had planned and advertised a celebration and performance tonight for Trans Day of Remembrance…

There will be a Transgender Day of Remembrance candlelight vigil tonight at Town Hall at 6:30PM. Please spread the word.

The Portuguese and Spanish wines were flowing, and many Ptown favorites like @ptownperrys , @eastendmarketptown , @scottcakes , @ptownbrewingco and more were featured in addition to the weekend’s other event. Plus a portion of the proceeds went straight to SKIP soup kitchen 🙌🏼
