The Artist Is in Her Residence
Illnesses: chronic. Tits: iconic.
Hampered by health conditions, Creatif Kate invites you in to her humble abode. Settle down with a cuppa and enjoy a poetic peep into a life lived at her pace, in her place. After all, home is where the art is.

Chosen Family Night
Chosen Family are the people who understand you, lift you up, celebrate you, help you, and love you, without the need for biological bonds. This event is an invitation to come together, find joy, and celebrate the family you've made with people you have found.
