Solstice Chill - Homo Phono Listening Party & Games Night

Solstice Chill - Listening party & games night! We’re back with our pals at @thegrove613 to bring you something a bit more laid-back as we move into winter. Expect low decibel Afrohouse/beats, funk & RnB. We'll provide some games - feel free to bring your own!
We're excited to have Kaytlyn Nadjiwon (@softbutsturdy) with us to bring in the solstice! While Kaytlyn is not a self-described tarot reader or expert, she's long worked with tarot and oracle decks, energy, and channelling in her personal practice. She was inspired by the Anchored deck for healing by Margeaux Feldman of @softcore_traumato open that energy work to the community more broadly. She's generously offered to share space with us on the solstice so we can think about our intentions for the winter months. Readings are by donation to Indigenous youth organization, @assembly7generations (cash, e-transfer suggested donation is sliding scale, $5 - 25). Readings are on a first come basis and there will be a sign-up sheet when you arrive. Accepting donations for A7G without readings as well!
Bar with non-alcoholic drinks inc beer, cocktails, seltzers and more, please enjoy outside.
This is a covid-safer event! We don’t have a lot of spots for the #covidcautiouscommunity so we’re prioritizing safety, access, and community at this event:
N95 or equivalent are required indoors and optional outdoors. Some masks (overhead straps) will be available at the door. Three air purifiers will be running. We monitor CO2 throughout the night and will announce if the monitors reach 1500. With a lot of people in a small space, this can happen, but the readings go down quickly once we open the door for a bit.

A few tickets are available at the door on a first come basis. Sliding scale - $5-20 (cash only at the door)
