ONE Queer Garden Club A succulent social group, combining volunteer gardening work with social relationship and creativity Refreshments provided.

Join us for ONE Q***r Garden Club: a succulent social group, combining volunteer gardening work with social relationship and creativity. The initial aim of the OQGC is to improve the physical garden terrain around ONE Archives. Over time, the garden and OQGC will evolve to build a Legacy Garden, a creative place to commemorate the many q***r ancestors who have contributed to our lives and LGBTQ hi

story. The OQGC will gather at various intervals throughout the year at ONE Archives. Our time will be spent with our hands in the earth and in discussion with each other. Location: ONE National Gay & Le***an Archives
909 West Adams Boulevard
Los Angeles, CA 90007

Future dates & times TBD by the members of OQGC. You do not need to be present for every meeting to be a member or to share your interest. All levels of gardening skills, knowledge, and abilities are welcome. You are encouraged to bring: gardening attire, gloves, small garden tools, ideas and creativity.

Hello Gardeners! When we get rain we get growth...including weeds! The garden is flourishing but will need some TLC soon. Next gathering will be on saturday Feb 23 (we were going to do 2nd but 🌧 ✔️!)
Dates are tentative but mark your calendars and send any suggestions for special activities to do along with our regular maintenance duties. Looking forward to what this year can manifest.

Last official OQGC gathering of 2018! Feeling a lot of gratitude for the amazing transformations since we began the journey in 2017. So much to love.
This gathering we’ll focus on fixing up some of the alterations made to the garden since the arrival of the giant HVAC system and generator that sits in the north part of garden, as well as discuss ideas for 2019!

Our fall schedule includes three more dates until the end of the year. On Sept 29 we will focus our attention on replanting the north entrance to the garden - the corner entrance from the parking lot.

We had such a lovely and successful evening during the Summer Garden Party - and next year will bring more festive special events. Thanks to every club member for contributing to the beauty of the succulent garden!

Since the south entrance was the primary public entry point for the Summer Garden Party we needed to bulk up its presence, so we removed some of the potted plants and Quan Yin sculpture from the north entrance- so now it needs some attention. Fortunately, we received a beautiful giant “archeological treasure pot” from member Chadmichael! The big pot will host a large aloe plant, so we’ll sculpt the north entrance around that feature.

In October and November we will set our sights on continuing creative projects like building some simple wooden benches for the garden and continuing to make art mosaic pieces!
Looking forward to sharing time in the garden with you!

A most splendid experience with the OQGC on July 21! After a bit of garden work we were led in a relaxing and creative art workshop by Mr. Voice Love. He guided us on blowing ink and making plant leaf prints to make original art! So fun - and you’ll have a chance to try it out yourself at the Summer Garden Party on August 11 from 5-7pm. They’ll also be refreshments, live music by Q***rtet (playing fun string arrangements of contemporary music), tours of the Archives inside, and a chance to take home clippings from the garden!

We gather once more as a club on Aug 4 to prepare the garden for the party. Join us for some “succulent garden fluffing” from 10am-1pm!

Check it out! The Invite for our first Summer Garden Party launched today. We have two gatherings that lead up to the Aug 11 evening party event.

Please join us to help maintain the garden on July 21 (also featuring a creative workshop where you create your own original artworks based on garden plant pressings by Mr. Voice Love) and on August 4 (the weekend before the party to make sure it's looking swell)- from 10am-1pm.

Come celebrate the recently restored succulent garden. Enjoy light hors d’oeuvres, refreshing beverages, and tours of the largest LGBTQ archive in the world. Take home a part of the garden with a plant sale of fresh clippings and guided flower pressing demonstrations.
