Butch Brunch & Clothing Swap

Calling all butches and masculine of center folks! Join us for Butch Brunch & Clothing Swap!

Let's enjoy some brunch & beverages while we connect and network at Crush Bar (1400 SE Morrison, Portland, OR). Then let's exchange those fashionable butch and MOC clothing items for fresh looks and added layers for your wardrobe.

Meet up in the back room of Crush where we have space reserved from 11:30am to 2:30pm. Invite your friends, share this with your networks.

Brunch - 11:30am - 1:00pm
Clothing Swap 1:00pm - 2:30pm

Crush will be providing a full-featured, classic brunch buffet with all your breakfast favorites: scrambled eggs, bacon, ham, sausage patties, Crush's famous homefries, and biscuits and gravy! We have vegan breakfast options as well (please let us know when purchasing your ticket in advance). 

Bring your gently used and clean clothing items for a butch and masculine of center clothing swap. Please limit your items that you bring to one large bag. All items not taken at the end of the swap will be donated to Transition Projects (https://www.tprojects.org/). 

Butch Brunch 11:30am to 1:00pm --- Upon arrival, you can order your favorite brunch cocktail (maybe a mimosa, or a brunch Bloody Mary?) or your favorite non alcoholic beverage and purchase a plate from the bartender for $10 for endless brunch buffet! Everything will be set up in Crush's intimate backroom event space and we'll have a dedicated staffer to help with seating and cleanup.

Butch and MOC Clothing Swap - 1:00pm to 2:30pm
Have an item that no longer fits, or you'd like to pass along to another butch or masculine of center person? Bring your gently used and clean items to Crush. Limit of one larger bag of items per person for drop off. Take as many as you like. The staff at Crush will provide a try on space as well. 

Who is welcome? Anyone who is butch or masculine of center identified. We won't police your identity, nor appearance. At BUTCH Voices (and also at this event) it's up to you to decide if this is the space for you. We love our allies, but would really enjoy having space among ourselves for this specific event. Thank you for understanding, and for your support of BUTCH Voices. https://www.butchvoices.com/
