Though LGBTQ representation is becoming more frequent in films and television, it's still not a common occurrence. The LGBTQ-affirming church MCC Detroit is aiming to combat that in a small way with a LGBTQ Film Night on Aug. 17 from 5 to 7:30 p.m.
"Come out and share in selected award-nominated short films that are geared toward the LGBTQ community," event organizers wrote. "Come and share your pride with a good film featuring us. Popcorn and soda will be provided. Movie trivia with prizes between films!"
This is a free-to-attend event that will be held in the Fellowship Hall. MCC Detroit is located at 205 N. Main St. in Clawson. To RSVP visit this link: gaybe.am/VW.
