Jun 7In celebration of Pride Month, join The LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired and the Talking Books and Braille Center for a 3-week book study that examines one of the most deeply introspective memoirs on the market (Teen Vogue, 2020). Meredith Talusan’s Fairest: A Memoir is a raw, unfiltered look at race, class, sexuality, gender, and so much more. Talusan navigates through the complexities of growing up as a young kid with albinism in a rural community in the Philippines, who grew up to become a Harvard graduate, an artist and activist questioning the boundaries of gender, and discovering her place within the gay community.
Send your RSVP to Sabrina at sbolus@lighthouse-sf.org. Please RSVP to register and receive the event link and study guide.
Reader Discretion advised: This book contains scenes of a sexual nature and strong language.

Jun 10To kick off San Francisco's Pride celebration, let's do lunch in the Castro and take in the scene afterward! We will meet at LightHouse HQ with your Clipper card and some cash, and we will head down to Muni for a short ride to our destination, Orphan Andy's, a diner located at the corner of Castro and Market, just across the street from the Muni station. Time and interest pending, we can even visit Cliff's Hardware, one of the coolest stores of its kind where you can find curiosities amidst the regular necessities.
Send your RSVPs to Maia at Mscott@lighthouse-sf.org. Please RSVP by Thursday, June 9.
The events for the upcoming week are read aloud on our event hotline every Friday, which can be accessed by calling 415-694-7325. For more information about visiting the Adaptations Store, head to our shop page.
