Bentis the nation's only queer writing school, with a mission to promote and encourage written and spoken word among LGBTIQ people, and in our communities. Bent aims to provide affordable writing education for queer-identified people and to create a safe space for all artists and encourage underrepresented voices by incorporating social justice and anti-oppression values into our curricula and organizational policies.

TumbleMe Productions currently works with Bent to strengthen creative programming and support volunteer teachers. The 2011 Bent Mentor Showcase, featuring Storme Webber, will be November 18th at Seattle's Museum of History and Industry.  The annual show will have a new twist this year, with TumbleMe on board as a co-producer.
