BOSTON WOMEN'S GROUP
We currently have over 1000 members.
Our purpose is to build community for women in the Boston
Area. Our hope is to create more community for gay/queer
women in the Boston Area, especially for women who have recently
moved here, or who have recently come out. Also, to help
change the story that it is so hard to meet people in Boston.
We are an inclusive group for women of all ages and backgrounds
who identify as gay or queer in any way. One of the organizers
tries to be at as many of the events as possible to help
welcome everyone. Many women come to these events on their
own, but we're available to meet up with anyone interested
before an event so you don't have to go on your own. We have
activities just about every week. www.bostonwomensgroup.com
