You’reWelcome: A Reunion Family Variety Show & Community Kiki
@ Reunion Chicago
2557 W North Ave, Chicago, IL 60647
Opening Saturday, March 14th, from 7PM - 10PM
For 4 years we’ve been holding it down as one of the very few DIY spaces in Chicago prioritized exclusively for women, femmes and non-binary fam, LGBTQ+ folx and communities of color. To kick off the decade, we’re bringing back our bi-annual series: You’re Welcome that we launched in June 2019.
We’ve assembled the family and we’re putting on a show! Join us for our official programming kickoff for a night showcasing our Reunion residents with sneak peeks of what’s coming in 2020! Hosted by Co-Founders Elijah and Kristen, this night will feature conversations with our residents and tastes of their projects in the works. The kiki kicks off at 7pm with the show beginning promptly at 8pm!
Our community has put a lot of blood, sweat into making Reunion a thriving ecosystem and for that, we say THANK YOU + YOU’RE WELCOME! Come out and see what we have in store for 2020 plus welcome Eli Micky home after being away for 4 months!
