Unapologetically a Creative Queer.

Making and taking space.

We will not shrink. We will not hide. We will not back down.

Art. Music. Culture. They are all intertwined in the vibrancy of this world. They are a necessity. They are life-giving. They are the medicine for every raw human experience. They are the breath that buoys us in the hardest moments. They are the aphrodisiac for a beautiful series of connections. They are the roots of community and belonging. And. They belong to every person, of every age, of every identity, of every nation.

This week we are living and leaning into making and taking space. This week we are throwing our arms open wide and declaring - we will LIVE. We will LAUGH. We will SING. We will CREATE. We will CELEBRATE BEAUTY. And we will ROOT into each other’s arms. All while we hold the wholeness of the chaos and heartbreak. All while we do the work of these times.

Join Us.

Time for Another Sneak Preview!

We’re waist high in audio recordings in preparation for our Spring project launch. And we can’t bear to keep *everything* a secret! So today, and in the weeks to come, we’ll share short excerpts of interviews with each of our 2025 Creatives. Today, take a moment to lean in and hear Jey speak about the power and sweetness of co-creating Yet Another Queer Pop-Up Market with M.

PS. Our crowdfunding campaign is still up and running as we move past our original $2000 goal and onward to $10,000. For our upcoming 2025 season, we’re planning to invite three additional creatives to join us for interviews. Inspired by the incredible talent and innovation happening in our community, we’ve decided to take a bold step forward, expanding our reach and growing our platform.

This means a bit more work, a little more risk, and a lot more creative energy. To make this happen, we’ll need your help. We’re currently raising funds to cover the costs of our recording space and to offer stipends for the valuable time and expertise of each of our new guests. Your support—whether big or small—will help ensure that we can continue providing a platform for diverse creative voices and stories.

Head over to our crowdfunding campaign and join us in making the 2025 season an unforgettable celebration of creativity, culture, and collaboration. 🔗 bit.ly/rooted-resilience-fund
