Reading Nights is a cozy, intentional space for BIPOC & Queer community to gather and read together. Bring your own book!
About this Event

What to Expect: Before Silent Reading Night, we’ll be holding our BIPOC Queer Book Club, or just a discussion about books from

6–7 PM.

Silent Reading Night runs from 7–9 PM, and you’re welcome to drop in anytime during the session. This is a donation-based event so pay what you can! It supports our group events. We'll be creating a soft, calming environment with candlelight gently distributed around the space. Feel free to bring a blanket, cushion, or your favorite comfy folding chair to get extra cozy.

There will be pastries and tea available for refreshment and nourishment for both body and spirit.

Come as you are. We can’t wait to see you.

Candlight Reading Nights

Info: Join us from 7–9 PM for a cozy, candlelit reading session. Bring your favorite book, a blanket, or a comfy chair—whatever helps you feel at ease. Enjoy tea and pastries from a local BIPOC baker while soft jazz from a record player fills the space. It’s a time to unwind, read, and simply be in community with fellow BIPOC queer folks.
