Dykes That Hike

Dykes That Hike – An Art Hike Experience for Queen City Queerz

Calling all sapphics, studs, soft butches, masc babes, and anyone reclaiming the word dyke with pride. Shes, theys, & gays —this one’s for you.

Dykes That Hike is a guided art hike designed to ground you in nature, stir your creative spirit, and connect you with queer community on the trail. We’ll wander through scenic paths, pause for plant ID and quiet reflection, and let the land inspire our art.

We’ll start with a grounding nature walk, tuning into our bodies, breath, and surroundings. Once we find our creative clearing, artist Zulyette will guide a beginner-friendly writing workshop session—no experience necessary. Whether you’re picking wildflowers or journaling about joy, we welcome all forms of expression.

Bring your boots, bring your journal!
