to friendships, from mentorships to partnerships, are honored in our activities.
Here, you will find a supportive environment for exploring the sexually sacred
and celebrating the ecstatic. You will find others of a like mind with whom
to experience different ways of loving, different roads to achieving bliss.

October
Building Bridges Conference
October 13 - 15, 2006
Seattle, WA
Unlike other conferences which primarily focus only on specific communities,
Building Bridges seeks the broadest possible participation from all communities
who experience oppression and intolerance because of their relationship configurations
or practices, which are often closely linked to sexual identity, orientation,
and core beliefs. Each community brings a particular history and approach to
the process of thriving in a world where relationship prejudice still exists
as a powerful force. Building Bridges helps you benefit from that diverse pool
of experience in a manner offered by no other major event.
