About this Event

Join us every fourth Friday of the month from 4:00pm - 8:00pm (unless stated otherwise) for Queer Craft Night! We will be hosting Queer Craft Night's for all queer survivors and those who support queer suvivors!

Our studio is open to queer survivors and all who support queer survivors during our Queer Craft Night, and we extend a warm invitation to all who support our mission to provide survivors of SV with inclusive art making experiences that encourages healing. No RSVP needed, just stop on by anytime between 4-8pm and bring a friend!

If you haven't been to our space before, you will be greeted by one of our staff members upon arrival and given a short tour around the studio. No art experience or professional background is needed. Bring your own project or explore the art supplies we have available for free. We’ll also have creative prompts to spark your inspiration! ✨

The focus of Queer Craft Night is to give individuals in our community unstructured, unfacilitated time to be together and create art.

There are two steps to enter the building. Dial 012 on the call box and we will buzz you in! Go up the stairs or front elevator to the 2nd floor, we are the last door on the right.

If you utilize a wheelchair, please email or call Awakenings ahead of your arrival and a staff member can direct you up to the studio in our freight elevator.
