Fairness Fort Worth is holding its first mixer.
The FFW board will present an LGBT community update at Times Ten Cellar, 1100 Foch St., Fort Worth this evening.
FFW formed in the wake of the raid of the Rainbow Lounge in 2009 and was successful in updating nondiscrimination ordinances and adding benefits for Fort Worth LGBT employees.
“The purpose is to inform people about what Fairness Fort Worth is, what it’s done and what it plans to do in the future,” FFW President Jon Nelson said.
He said the group has several committees and wants to get people involved. He’ll talk about how they can help.
Free hors d’oeuvres and a cash bar begin at 6 p.m. and Nelson will make his remarks at 7 p.m.
Nelson said this isn’t a fundraiser but just a way for people in the community to get together and meet others in Fort Worth who want to make a difference.
