The Togetherness: QTBIPOC Gatherings are a collaboration between MESA and the Spectrum Center focusing on centering the experiences of Queer, Trans, Black, Indigenous, Students of Color through sharing meals, discussions, and creating connections with people in the QTBIPOC community at UM and in the surrounding areas. This month's host will be Mark Chung Kwan Fan and is a part of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. As with all Togetherness Gatherings, this is a space and meant to allow those with a similar identity to find one another and connect over shared experiences, something we ask allies to consider before making the decision to register or attend.

Mark Chung Kwan Fan comes with a decade of higher education experience focused on student affairs and supporting diverse students. He currently serves as the director of student life at the U-M Penny W. Stamps School of Art & Design. Born and raised in Mauritius, he refers to the State of Michigan as a second home since arriving as a first-year university student. Mark is a Taurus sun, world traveler, and Asian food lover. He’s been involved on various local and national boards of LGBTQ+, art-related, and professional associations.
