Whether you're new to the scene or deeply embedded in your journey, this weekend is about skill-building, joy, reclamation, and connection.

Hear some attendee feedback from the 2025 conference:

"I thought this was really solid for a first conference and I know it takes a lot to put these on, so I’m very appreciative of the staff for doing it! I will definitely be back next year, can’t wait to see how this grows."

"I loved that all the presenters were Black and I loved seeing so many Black queer folks in the space and doing unconventional sorts of play. I also loved that the food vendors directly supported the community and are a part of the community!"

"I loved the honesty of the Black experience.."

"This was the first time I've ever seen this done.. the intention behind platforming Black people and making it a closed container was powerful.. I got so many questions answered!"
