Welcome Home
We’re a vibrant in-person community of Radical Faeries in-and-around Chicago, who celebrate each other & gather for events all year long.
Our robust calendar includes potlucks, full moon rituals, healing circles, our annual Winter Gatherette, and much more! We center in-person connections, queer bliss, and uplifting transformation. Our community utilizes systems of mutual aid & exchange to support one another, and creates events that are completely free or donation-based with NOTAFLOF [no one turned away for lack of funds] and GAYABAGS [give as you’re able, but always give something – like coin, food & snacks, volunteer labor, holding space, etc]. Within our community we share common fae values of subject-subject consciousness, radical inclusivity, non-violence, and more.
Together we co-create playful moments, healing magic, and powerful friendships.
