Never Surrender: TAROT

Friday, November 21, 2025 

7pm-12:30am

A Secret Venue in Downtown Manhattan

A chill is in the air, the moon is high, the barrier between worlds begins to fade. 

What’s in the cards for you tonight?

βœ¨πŸ§Ώβœ¨πŸŒžβœ¨πŸ’€βœ¨πŸ‘‘βœ¨πŸ—‘οΈβœ¨πŸŒœβœ¨πŸƒβœ¨

I see you’ve come to seek your fortune, traveler. Come in from the cold. Take a seat. And let us see what the cards have in store for you…

Join us. Let’s spin your wheel of fortune. Will you play the Fool? Unleash your inner Emperor or Empress? Perhaps let your Tower be toppled? Ride a Chariot? Ride a Devil? Be a Star? Be the World? The night is yours, and any fortune is possible if you’re willing to take a chance on it.

Fill your cups, draw your swords, spend your coin, and maybe do some creative things with your magic wands if you feel so inclined…

Let the mystical and unknowable forces of Tarot be your guide. Cum bedecked in stars, in moons, in skulls or in crowns. Glitter, sparkles, blacks, silvers, gold, royal garb, horns, tails, high goth, swamp witch, sexy priest, or anything that makes you feel magical and ready to commit dark, holy heresy. 

There will be games! There will be themed areas for various types of play! (There may even be a water sports room for those interested in filling their cups with golden showers…) 

Cum ready to feel beautiful, powerful, mysterious, frightening, and free.

Join us for some true magic.

NEVER SURRENDER is a recurring party that has taken several forms over several years, both live and virtual. We currently gather every other month as long as desire and circumstance permit.
We are a place to play, to feel safe, and to reconnect. We are a chill space for good times with good people. We are queer-centered, gender-extravagant, and wholesome as fuck. We are a party and a protest, a ritual and a revel. We are a circle of love spitting naked defiance at a world in crisis.
Make loud noises. Leave lipstick traces. Make memories. Talk, play, show off, or just be a witness to the magic. Come as whatever gender you are, wear whatever makes you happy.

We have a big, beautiful space to spread out in, with an open floor and lots of furniture to have fun with! Lots of beds, furniture, lush lighting, and clean facilities. And a quiet room to chill.

πŸŒ‘πŸŒ˜πŸŒ—πŸŒ–πŸŒ•πŸŒ”πŸŒ“πŸŒ’πŸŒ‘

At 7:45 we will kick off the welcome circle and get acquainted, so you don’t want to miss it. It’s an opportunity to introduce yourself, share your intentions, and put your hopes out there. Then we set the scene: chat, exchange saucy compliments, dance, be bravely social. Get close, get friendly, maybe try out something new. There’s no pressure to do anything other than what feels right for you.

This also means asking permission for specific activities before attempting to initiate.
