Not only am I a volunteer, but I'm a patron. I was introduced to the center back in 2010. I've seen the center move locations, change directors and give birth to one of the largest LGBT Libraries in NC. The LGBT Center of Raleigh is a community center that welcomes everyone! If you need a place to just come and sit.... get out of the house... there is always a warm welcoming smile to greet you. The center offers many groups for the community, Trans, Gay and Gray (50+ y/o), MClub, NAIL, Youth Coffee House, BInG (Bisexual Social Group), Open Mic night... and the list goes on. There is always something going on, and something to do. OutRaleigh is a festival that is offered annually through the center, and happens in May. If you missed it this year, be sure to check it out in 2013! And last of all... be sure to come out on First Friday of each month. They feature a local LGBT Artist, and offer a great spread! Thank you to the LGBT Center of Raleigh!
