Tulips in the Garden
Tulips in the Garden: A Black Queer Supper Club is a soft landing space for Black Queer Women, Femmes, and Gender Expansive millennials in Durham, North Carolina. Four times a year, we gather to share a nourishing meal, celebrate Black Queer joy, and support our local community.
Tulips in the Garden is rooted in three foundational pillars.
-
Joyful Community lies at the heart of everything we do; we queer Sunday dinner and leverage joy as a praxis for community building by engaging in intentional activities, cultural expressions, and affirmations of identity, to foster a sense of belonging.
-
Nourishment is key to all of our gatherings, we provide both a nourishing meal and experience that feeds the body and soul, emphasizing communal dining as a powerful means of connection and care.
-
Through place-based solidarity we aim to replenish and fortify the wider community, creating a cycle of support through partnerships and service with local non-profits and community initiatives.
