About this session
Music can bring back memories, lift our spirits and connect us to people, places and moments in our lives that were fun, important and safe.
From Bollywood classics and South Asian artists to queer anthems, love songs and guilty pleasures, we all have songs that mean something to us. Maybe there's a tune that reminds you of growing up, a song that gets you dancing or one that always makes you smile.
Come along for a relaxed, friendly chat about the music we love. Share your favourite songs, swap recommendations and discover what music means to others in our South Asian GBTQ+ community. You might even rediscover an old favourite!
- What songs bring back special memories for you?
- Is there a song that always lifts your mood or gets you dancing?
- Has music helped you feel connected to your culture, identity or community?
There's no need to be a music expert, just bring along your love of music and join the conversation! This session is always a fun way to learn a little more about each other and make connections.
About South Asian HangOuts
A twice monthly friendly and welcoming online social and peer support group for gay, bi and trans men with South Asian heritage.
Our aim is to reduce isolation by creating a safe space to get to know each other through shared lived experiences, topic discussions and creative activities.
This online space is an opportunity to build community by coming together and connecting with one another in a safe and friendly non-judgmental space.
- We meet the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month 6 -7.30pm
- Please try to arrive 5 minutes early. The Zoom room closes at 6.10pm (this is so we can minimise any disruption).
- Please read our online group agreement
By South Asian we mean countries including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Iran, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka and beyond. We welcome gay, bi & trans men from all South Asian faith backgrounds as well as those who don’t identify with any faith. One of the main aims of the groups is to reduce isolation including social, cultural and geographical, by connecting with each other's lived experiences.
