Join us for a brand new monthly event that will be shaped for us, by us. Starting this holiday season with a taster event to bring some realness to break up the Christmas schmaltz.
The arguments in favour of Brunch are incontestable. In the first place it renders early rising not only unnecessary but ridiculous . . . . Brunch . . . is cheerful sociable and inciting. It is talk-compelling. It puts you in a good temper; it makes you satisfied with yourself and your fellow beings.

It sweeps away the worries and cobwebs of the week
A ‘sociable’, ‘talk-compelling’ brunch with African diaspora flavours
Those who brunch are treated to an afternoon menu of participatory performance arts, skills exchange, debate,and Black Boy Joy, shaped by us and for us:
- BlackOut’s living library reading room opens for conversation across borders
- Topical debate, live-recorded by the nation’s leading Black queer podcasters
- An arts-skills taster session from poetry to dance, painting to digital design, storytelling to singing
- Reviving and celebrating the work of Black queer filmmakers with a specially curated short film series
- Make a collaborative documentary each month to build a public platform focused on the issues that matter to you
- It wouldn’t be our revolution if we couldn’t dance. The No Tea Tea Dance kicks-off with a ‘celebrity’ ‘Desert Island DJ’ set followed by up-and-coming new musical talent to end the weekend in style
