See Auntie Mame to support Three Dollar Bill Cinema on December 15th

You would have to be new to the GayZette to not know that I love love love Three Dollar Bill Cinema.  They feature the best of the classics and select amazing new releases.  Thanks to the hardworking folks at Three Dollar Bill Cinema.  I have not ever seen the upcoming Auntie Mame which is their annual fundraising screening film.  Ms T.

 Celebrate the season with Three Dollar Bill Cinema and AUNTIE MAME. The beloved 1958 film starring the incomparable Rosalind Russell returns for one night of festive revelry, a 'homo for the holidays' tradition.

Always armed with a colorful dress and an acerbic quip, the flamboyant, vibrant Mame Dennis (Russell) is an unconventional socialite from the roaring 20's. When her young orphan nephew comes to live in her madcap party pad, Mame takes him under wing for an adventure in living life to its fullest.

Gaiety, classic film, and sharp humor...in the words of Auntie Mame: "What could be more wholesome and natural?"

The weekend highlights December 2nd - 4th

Wow...I know that December is a busy time but trying to choose what to go to this year is head spinning as there are so many great events to pick from.  I feel like we are suffering from an abundance of riches!  I try to avoid overloading my beloved's with too many emails but December will make up for the summer months when I was ignoring you ;~).  I currently have a backlog of items to send out that have to wait until the partying stops!

For any event mentioned here, remember there are at least ten more on the calendar (800 - 1000 events per month).  If you are counting on my emails alone for all the social happenings, I sweetly suggest you peek at the Seattle Announcements Calendar.  I hope to see many of you out and about this weekend as I am going to be all over the place.





Here is a quick run down on some of the weekend's offerings and individual blog posts will follow:

Rainbow Health Fair Planning Committ...  
  

Rainbow Health Fair is forming a Planning Committee

Rainbow Health Fair Needs You!

Dear Friends in Health:                                                                        
We are excited to be launching a planning committee for the 14th Annual Rainbow Health Fair and would like to invite you to be a member.  If you are passionate about the health and well being of the LBTQ community you are what we are looking for!  Please join us for an inspiring evening of brainstorming as we plan our next Health Fair.

The time commitment will be approximately one meeting a month in January, February, March, April and 2 meetings in May and June.  If you have motivation but not as much time, we still may find you a valuable member of the planning committee.  Access to email will be a plus.

Please join us:
Tuesday, December 6th, 2011 – 6:30pm

Please RSVP to Ingrid at lbthealth@ywcaworks.org.  We look forward to having you be part of this exciting team.

Ps. I think the way the world is going to have a day for people to get medical check- ups  by mostly peer-providers and other information for their overall well-being, is becoming more important than ever. So let’s make the 14th Rainbow Health Fair into an unforgettable event.  Please help spread the word!!

Thank you and be well,

Ladies ONLY Charity Clothing Swap Sunday, December 4th

This is going to be such a hoot!  What a great way to hang with some of your favorite girlfriends!  Have some brunch, catch up or meet up afterwards and show off your new-to-you clothes.  I cleaned out my closets and have about 10 bags of clothes I am so HAPPY to be removing from my life.  I cannot believe how many clothes I still have and that my closets are still full.  This has already been a blessing.  Join us!


Sunday December 4th
1pm - 4pm   
Tully's Building, 3100 Airport Way S, Seattle, WA
   
It’s a lot of information, but it’s relevant. PLEASE READ ALL!

It's the biggest and best women’s clothing swap in the Northwest! Make good on your resolution to get rid of everything you haven't worn for a year or more. Socialize with a bunch of cool women. Pick up a few new-to-you outfits. It's time! Forward to your gal friends. Bring a female neighbor. The more women, the merrier!

About the location: it's a big complex - we'll be on floor 6R of the red building that has the huge Tully's "T" on top. Enter from the back road by the freeway next to a large "3150" sign spray-painted on the wall. You can use the loading zone right by this door to drop off clothes, but park down below by the Tully's drive through. We will tape the door lock open and put big signs by the entrance to point the way to the elevator, then post the elevator code and floor # inside.

Our charities this time include:

Northwest Harvest. Go through your cupboards and contribute non-perishable food to this great local organization.

Additionally, we are asking for cash donations to help a young woman named Veronica Daudi of Tanzania go to college. There will be an info sheet at the event with more details about her, or you can check out info about her in Nora's 'notes' here on facebook.

Jubilee Women's Center will be receiving the leftovers that are in good condition for homeless women to 'shop' for at their boutique. Donation receipts will be available at the event.

No one likes them, but here are the RULES:

NO boys, men, children under 13, or items for them. There are no dressing rooms or childcare. This is a chick fest. Prepare to see (and participate in) full nudity, or wear modest undergarments if you prefer to be less exposed.

Go through your closets and dressers and bring whatever you’re willing to part with. Please sort your clothing items before the swap by size (12 and under, 14 and over) and type (skirts, dresses, pants, tops, etc). This is a very large event and it's necessary to create some order within the chaos! You can still “shop” in whatever section you like. Consider packaging jewelry individually in snack-size ziplock bags.

Please DO NOT bring items other than ladies clothing and accessories that are in good condition. This is NOT a place to get rid of your stained, holey, broken-zippered, ripped, paint-splattered clothes. However, out-of-season clothes, costumes, formal attire, decent shoes, lingerie, and hats are welcome! It is also NOT a place to bring housewares, books, or knick-knacks. We just do not have the resources to deal with that other stuff.

Don't forget to bring donations if you’re able: food, toys, and cash. Even a little can go a long way. Remember, this swap is FREE, and you’re likely to find some good stuff that you might have even been willing to pay real money for. Snacky lunch items to share are also appreciated.

Did we mention no males or children or items for men and children?

Ladies willing to stay after to help with packing up the leftover clothing will be rewarded with Karma points and a donation receipt from the charity of their choice. If you’ve enjoyed a few of these swaps, please consider contributing a bit of time afterwards to help the process finish up that much faster. No one is getting paid to do this. Extra garbage bags are extremely useful, as are shopping bags for the Jubilee Women's center to re-purpose.

This is going to be so great! See you soon!
