Pridefest Word Weaver Contest
Winning Words
FORGE participated in the first Health and Wellness area at Pridefest over the weekend of June 6 - 8, 2008. One of several interactive activities we hosted at our booth included a “Word Weaver” game, where we asked participants to contribute to the new lexicon of queer language by creating a new word and definition.
