A space to gather, connect, and feel seen.

Join us for A Sunday Fête, a warm and welcoming brunch experience created especially for BIPOC women and femmes to come together in celebration of community, creativity, and shared brilliance.

In a city where BIPOC women and femmes are often underrepresented — in leadership, in social spaces, in visibility — A Sunday Fête is a chance to gather in celebration, joy, and rest.

This is more than a brunch—it's a moment to exhale, to network, to build new friendships, and to feel seen in a space designed with us in mind. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a student, a leader, or simply someone craving meaningful connection, you're invited.

Your ticket includes:

Delicious brunch in the Neighbourly cafe in KWENCH
A Professional headshot by Aly Sibley (included with your ticket)
A henna artist offering beautiful designs onsite
Space to build meaningful connections with fellow BIPOC women and femmes
A warm, welcoming atmosphere where you can feel fully at ease

Whether you're new to Victoria or have been holding space here for years, you're invited to show up exactly as you are. Let’s brunch, build, and belong — together.

Tickets are limited to 60 guests. Early bird pricing is available — grab your spot while they last!.
