Get outside and meet new people at these Welcoming Walkabouts gear toward LGBTQIA+ community members, along with their allies. Each walk will be led by Sarah Masters, in collaboration with Midcoast Conservancy and Georges River Land Trust on a variety of trails throughout the summer. Treks will include a short hike with time to foster community connections with each other and with nature. This new collaboration is being forged to help create an intentional, safe, and accessible outdoor experience for all community members.
Children and dogs are welcome. Please keep dogs leashed and remove their waste. If you take photos at the event, please make sure you have permission from others.
All preserves, events, and programs managed by Midcoast Conservancy or Georges River Land Trust are open to everyone.
Sarah Masters is a local journalist covering regional arts programming. She started The Washington Grunge, a rural community for LGBTQIA+ folks and families, to provide an inclusive and affirming space in her home region.
All are welcome! Participants under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
While this is a free event, we appreciate your registration which is essential for our planning.
