SUMMARY:Queer Junk Journal Swap & Scrap Meet Up (in person only)
DESCRIPTION:Calling all queer paper nerds\, collage queens\, sticker gremlins\, and crafty babes! This 18+ LGBTQ+ junk journal social is part art hangout\, part swap meet\, part serotonin. Bring your journal\, your scissors\, your glue\, and your chaotic hoard of paper ephemera. We’re crafting together\, hyping each other’s pages\, and hosting a de-stash table to swap washi\, stickers\, scrapbook paper\, and any art supplies you want to pass on. No rules\, no pressure — just chill vibes\, creative play\, and swapping shiny bits like the crafty girls\, gays\, and theys that we are. 💖 ✂ ✨ \n  \n\nSpace is limited to the first 16 people who arrive. \nThe Bureau normally opens at 1 pm\, but we will open at 12 PM on Saturday\, January 24th\, for this event. \n  \nThis event will take place in person at the Bureau of General Services—Queer Division\, on the second floor (room 210) of The LGBT Community Center\, 208 W. 13th St.\, NYC\, 10011. \n\n\nThe Bureau will solicit donations at the beginning of the event—we especially encourage donations from those who do not plan to purchase any books. \nAll are welcome to attend\, with or without a donation. \n\nWe will pass a bag for donations at the start of the event\, but we can also take credit card donations at the register or on Venmo @BGSQD \n\n  \nAbout the facilitator: \nMichael Williams is a New York–based photo editor and visual storyteller whose career spans editorial portraiture\, performing arts publicity\, and celebrity event coverage. Born into a farm family in small-town Iowa\, he began photographing professionally in high school and earned his BA in Journalism & Mass Communication from the University of Iowa\, with a minor in French and study abroad in Lyon. His path has included an MFA stint at Columbia College Chicago\, a fellowship in Amsterdam\, and roles at Gamma Liaison\, Getty Images\, and now Everett Collection\, where he directs entertainment photo assignments. Outside of work\, Williams continues to photograph—especially his vintage Barbie collection\, featured in LIFE and PEOPLE—and leads creative workshops in junk journaling and stationery arts for the LGBTQ+ community.
