This event is for Asian gay, bisexual, queer, cis and trans guys. It's a TEA PARTY! 🍵 If you're like me, you might have a bunch of random teabags around that you save and never end up using. Now's a good reason to stop hoarding and bring your spare tea. Come join our Tea Exchange to trade teabags while meeting other guys! This is a casual social event with other gay Asian guys with some fun games to get to know each other more easily. If you don't have tea to share, you can still come! We have plenty of tea to share (and spill 😉) at ACAS. Chinese bakery pastries will be provided for light snacks Date: Thursday September 28 Time: 4pm-7pm Location: 260 Spadina Ave, Unit 410 Not required, but helpful for us to know if you're coming! Please RSVP at: https://forms.gle/zVfGSHgjssAAEvre9 For any questions, email Ryan at men@acas.org
