Margin Scribes: A QTBIPOC Writers' Collective

Thursday mornings at Hive Mind belong to queer and trans writers who actually show up to work. Bring your laptop, your draft, your questions — the coffee's good, the space is quiet enough to focus, and you're surrounded by people who get what it means to write from this side of things. No pressure to perform or network; just writers doing the work together.

A poetry reading and open mic series at Hive Mind that centers marginalized voices and builds community while raising funds for a better world. Bring your work, your story, or just your ears — this is the kind of night where people actually listen to each other.

An open mic built around the writing you actually love — bring a poem, a passage, a favorite author's prose, anything under five minutes. No original material, no spoilers, just people sharing the words that stuck with them. Grab a book off the shelf if you need one. It's the kind of night that reminds you why certain sentences matter.

A gathering for moon-loving queer folks hosted by Sterling Bowen, a writer and astrologer rooted in the Hive Mind community. These new and full moon circles blend open discussion, reflection, meditation, and magic-making in a space that welcomes all spiritual backgrounds—no particular tradition required, just genuine curiosity and an open heart.

A writing group for queer and trans playwrights at any stage of their career to develop work freely and hear it read aloud. Explore your craft alongside other queer and trans writers without the pressure of hunting down actors — just focused time with people who get what you're making.

Jibz Cameron, the iconoclast performance artist behind Dynasty Handbag, reads from her debut memoir at Hive Mind. A rare chance to hear directly from one of performance art's most inventive voices—expect the kind of sharp, uncompromising perspective that's made her work legendary in downtown theater and beyond.
