LBT Women of Erie is a social and support group for lesbian, bisexual and transgender women. Our group has been together in its current form since October, 2008. We hold monthly meetings at Brew Ha Ha at the Colony, in Erie. With a few exceptions, all meetings are held on the second Sunday of each month at noon. Members and first-timers are encouraged to bring ideas and information on events that they would like to participate in with the group.
