michaeld Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I get the impression there's a lot going on this Ace Week 2020! Of course the main site https://www.aceweek.org/ (run by Aces and Aros, affiliated with Asexual Outreach) is the first port of call. Internationally, there's also Aussie Ace Week and I know Indian Aces are running events too. Shall we try and make a list of events we're excited about? Please add any ace week related events or articles you can find and I (or another PT) will try to add to this OP.

ChasynDreamz Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 (edited) We aren't running any events as its our first year as an organization, but our Page ( https://www.instagram.com/unipride.tt/) is running a small informational session for the entire week, with each day focusing on a different aspect of Ace Identity, History and Community. Do try to stop by, if you can. *Edit - If the link isn't working you can search for us on instagram: @unipride.tt Edited October 24, 2020 by Uni Pride 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
