LGBTQIA+

LGBTQIA+

Our LGBTQIA+ programming is for anyone in their 20s/30s in Philadelphia who wants to explore the intersectionality of Jewish and queer identities.

We’re so proud of the unique and multifaceted Jewish LGBTQIA+ identities within our close-knit community! There are so many ways to get involved, from our more intimate monthly Ga(y)me Nights to decorating a sukkah with 30,000 of our closest friends at Outfest. This is a community-led initiative, so if there’s something you wish you share, celebrate, or explore with us, message the LGBTQIA+ Program Director below to start the conversation!

Breathe In & Branch Out: A Guided Meditation/Reflection For Tu B’Shvat

LGBTQIA+-community-tribe-12-logo

I always felt like Judaism was shoved down my throat and that my Jewish community wanted me to commit to the religion to suppress my queerness. When I found Tribe 12’s Ga(y)me Night and queer community, I finally felt like I had a place to figure out Judaism with a group of people like me.

Other ways to get involved:

Join our closed LGBTQIA+ Facebook Group to connect with new friends, learn about upcoming events, and provide feedback/ideas to help build the community that you want & need! 

Gather, celebrate, and learn with fellow trans*, nonbinary, agender, and gender-questioning people in our Jewish community!

Join our LGBTQIA+ Advisory Committee! This committee meets to give feedback on programs and ensure that we're creating a fully inclusive LGBTQIA+ Jewish community that meets everyone’s needs.
