Queerly ME and Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens welcome back community members for another LGBTQIA+ centered Gardens Aglow gathering!

During our gathering, we will offer a LGBTQIA+ centered trail mixer and the opportunity to mingle in an intentional community space between 5:00pm to 7:30pm. This event takes place during public hours, but there will be a dedicated space for community members to gather in at the Education Center.

Trail Mixer 5:30PM-6:30PM: Trail Mixers are casual, connection centered trail walks, and one of our most popular programs! Periodically during our walk, we will propose conversation prompts to participants and encourage participants to “mix it up” and find a new person to talk to each time a conversation prompt is introduced to encourage new connections!

We will be meeting at the Great Lawn, right outside the Cafe.

Mingle / Gather / Connect 6:30PM-7:30PM: A designated gathering space will be available for participants at the Education Center to continue to mingle and connect after the trail mixer.

Accessibility: The central garden areas are designed to be ADA-compliant, offering accessible pathways for all. Electric scooters and wheelchairs are available on a first-come, first-served basis to help ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience, free of charge.
