As artists continue to be shadowbanned, arts programs defunded, and fascism rises, choosing to create — to tell our stories and imagine futures rooted in collective care — is a necessary act of liberation. Now, more than ever, we need your voice, your stories, and your art — especially in the face of ongoing injustice.

​Join us for a 2-hour gathering of collective reflection. We’ll hear from artists, writers, and storytellers, and dream, journal, and create together through journaling and tarot.

​This space is especially for those who don’t see themselves as “artists” or aren’t sure where to begin. Together, we’ll tap into our own creative courage in community.
