Queer Me Out: Take a Stance

On Tuesday, June 20th, W Hotels is bringing the next installment of Queer Me Out to W Minneapolis – The Foshay. Queer Me Out is a global speaker series that engages influential members of the community to raise the volume on expanding support of equality and acceptance.
