We’re closing out our big queer roadtrip by taking you to the gayest town in America: Provincetown! 🌈In our season finale, we travel to Cape Cod, a peninsula off the southeast part of Massachusetts. You’ll meet some friendly folks who call Cape Cod their home year round. Plus, we’ll introduce you to The Summer of Sass, a local non-profit providing queer youth ages 18-20 the opportunity to spend the summer living and working in Provincetown. Find out why this place is a dream destination for the LGBTQ+ community and the ways that Ptown still needs to grow in order to become a truly intersectional queer utopia. This podcast episode was developed last summer through a workshop at the Fine Arts Work Center in Provincetown, MA.

It’s part two of our visit to Columbus, Ohio and we’re back with the queers at the Kaleidoscope Youth Center (KYC), the largest and longest-standing organization in Ohio solely dedicated to serving and supporting LGBTQIA+ youth since 1994. Today’s episode is an ode to special interests: from Dungeons and Dragons to Monster High dolls; from a queer tarot deck to a guitar named Sasha. The youth at KYC show us that our favorite things and hobbies can be portals to exploring and accepting who we are. We suggest listening to Part 1 of this episode first.

We’ve made it to the fourth stop on our queer roadtrip: Columbus, OH!

This is Part 1 of 2 of our visit to Columbus, Ohio.
