Queerly Beloved,


Samhain season is upon us — the veil thins, the ancestors whisper, and the queerdos gather once more! Join us for the next Queer Magic Medicine Show, a spiritual open mic and pancake breakfast dedicated to diverse spiritual expression and community ritual.



What to Expect


You can sing, pray, chant, dance, move, preach, recite, incant, improvise, meditate—whatever Spirit moves you to do! Or simply come as part of the congregation and lend your energy, witness, and applause.


Breakfast & Fellowship:

Join us for pancakes, sausage, fruit salad, and community before, during, and after our performances.

Vegan and gluten-free pancake options available.

If you’d like, bring prepped fruit to add to the communal fruit salad!
