One of the many standout performances from our recent Q***r Open Mic Night✨

Sean and John absolutely blew us away with this performance. Banjo, guitar, vocals , the talent in the room that night was something else.

A real privilege to host artists like these. ❤️

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our Q***r Open Mic Night last Friday🫶🏻

We’re so grateful for the support, warmth, and encouragement that filled the space. Every performer brought something special, and we were blown away by the talent, creativity, and courage shared throughout the evening.

Creating a safe, welcoming space for our community means so much to us, and nights like this remind us why it’s so important. Thank you for helping make it an amazing celebration of q***r voices and connection.

We can’t wait to do it all again. See you at the next one! 🌈✨ Happy Pride Month!
