[ASA] 2021 ASA IDEA Local Rainbow Dinners: Melbourne, Perth, Canberra

[Daniel Zucker]

Dear ASA Members,

The Rainbow Dinner, under the auspices of the Inclusion, Diversity and Equity in Astronomy (IDEA) Chapter of the ASA, is an annual social gathering for LGBTIQA+ astronomers and Allies at all career stages that occurs in conjunction with the ASA ASM. 

Given the ever-evolving COVID-19 situation in Australia, our aim is to have distributed Rainbow Dinners next week in a number of ASM hub cities. Based on the responses I’ve received and the latest information I have on which hubs will have in-person meetings, it looks like dinners may be possible in Melbourne, Canberra and Perth.

If you are interested in attending a Rainbow Dinner in one of these cities, please contact the relevant person as soon as possible (given that the ASM is taking place next week!):

Melbourne: 	Nichole Barry			nichole.a.barry at gmail.com <mailto:nichole.a.barry at gmail.com>

Perth: 		Kathryn Ross 		kathryn.ross1 at postgrad.curtin.edu.au <mailto:kathryn.ross1 at postgrad.curtin.edu.au>

Canberra: 	Stephanie Monty		Stephanie.Monty at anu.edu.au <mailto:Stephanie.Monty at anu.edu.au>

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me.
Best regards,

-- Daniel Zucker, on behalf of the IDEA Chapter 

P.S. Please note that all in-person events will naturally be contingent on whatever local COVID-19 restrictions are in force at the time.
