Mpowerment Cubed
M-Cubed hosts different events for younger gay and bi men in the St. Louis area. We revolve around the entire gay experience, beyond just the bar/club scene.

So whether you’re looking for new friends or new “friends,” come and join us! Events will be posted on this page, so keep watch and don’t miss out

Geeks OUT!
Geeks OUT rallies, empowers and promotes the queer geek community.
Ours is a diverse and growing culture made up of enthusiastic fans of all ages, colors, genders, sizes, and nationalities. Through regular events and a dynamic social media and online presence, Geeks OUT seeks to facilitate interaction locally, globally, and virtually, both to celebrate our shared geekiness and to focus and promote our own unique LGBT voice within that community.
Geeks OUT aims to offer and maintain a visible and vivacious queer presence at geek events, fostering inclusivity and openness within our community. By hosting a booth at conventions, we highlight the fact that LGBT fans are an integral part of geek culture, encouraging greater participation and representation for this generation of queer fans and the next.

GBTea
Once upon a time, there was a group called Boys and Brews. This group flourished for a while, but then one day it just disappeared. After many questions about where the group had gone or when and where the next meeting was, it decided to come back out of hiding. After the months of solitude, the group found itself in a new transcendent state. In this new state, it decided to call itself “GBTea.” And now, GBTea is coming out, bringing with it a new era of Mpowerment.
GBTea is a social group for all gay/bi men and transgender/trans* women under 30 in the St. Louis area. We’ll be meeting at 2pm at Mokabe’s Coffee House. Our first meeting will be about meeting new people within the community! Oh, and your first (non-alcoholic) beverage is free!

Cape Pride Inc
As a nonprofit organization located in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, Cape PRIDE Inc. was born in the summer of 2018. The first goal was to put on an EPIC celebration for the LGBTQ+ community of Southeast Missouri in 2019 to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Stonewall Riots & the start of the LGBTQ+ Rights Movement in the United States. That festival was a huge success and paved the way for all future goals and partnerships in Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
