Hello Campus Community,



The Q Center group is opening a Q Boutique to provide free and gender-affirming clothing to Highline's LGBTQIA+ student community! While the boutique is designed to honor the needs of queer and trans students, we welcome all students to visit, learn about, and receive clothing from this new campus resource. Details on the boutique location and hours will be announced soon.



To kick off the opening, please join us on Oct 4th for a Fashion Show event where students, staff, and faculty will showcase the Fall collection as well as personal styles. We will explore the theme "Wear What Feels Good" as we reflect on clothing in relation to identity and sustainability.



Please save the date and time!

Thank you to everyone who donated clothing to our Spring drive, Cassie Geraghty for the inspiring idea, CLS for collecting and storing, Cisco Orozco and Ben Thomas for creating space for us in Building 4, and the Executive Cabinet for their ongoing support of the Q Center project.
