A storytelling and spoken word event featuring Darcy along with Jax Brown, Kanika Chopra, and Elijah Money!

Queering Home: a storytelling and spoken word event

Queering Home is an intimate evening of storytelling that explores the beautiful, complex, and revolutionary ways LGBTQIA+ people create home – not just as a place, but as a feeling, a community, and an act of love.

Queering Home invites you to witness powerful personal narratives about:

• Finding sanctuary in unexpected places

• Building families that choose each other every day

• Transforming spaces into havens of acceptance

• The courage it takes to create belonging

• Love letters to the homes we've built, lost, and dreamed of
