Hey MSE family,

 

TMS PRIDE is hosting yet another LGBTQ+ and Allies mixer at TMS 2020 (San Diego, CA).  All are welcome and encouraged to attend.


When: Sunday February 23, 2020; 8-10pm

Where: San Diego Convention Center Room 3

 

We usually have 100+ people attend the mixer at TMS.  As in the past, it is a photo-free zone so you do not have to worry about photos being taken of you.

 

Additionally, I am attaching a rough draft of our resources handout to anyone who will be traveling and concerned about going to LGBTQ+ friendly businesses.  This is also just a tremendous resource for just anyone looking for food within walking distance of the convention center.  I swear, y’all, I must have gone to Freshii 20 times when I was there for TMS a few years ago – IT IS SO GOOD.

 

I hope you all have a great day, and I’m looking forward to seeing many of you there (as always)!

 

Also - if you have any questions about attending TMS and other materials-friendly conferences (MRS, MS&T, ACerS, ACS, etc.) as an LGBTQ+ identified person, just reach out to me and I’d be happy to help.

 

Sincerely,

 

Matthew Korey
