NEVER SURRENDER: Magical Transformations

Never Surrender is starting the new year by taking on evil in the name of love and justice!

Saturday, January 14, 2023
7pm-midnight
A Secret Location in Downtown Manhattan

NEVER SURRENDER is a recurring party that has taken several forms over several years, both live and virtual. We returned to live events in Spring 2022 and are now gathering 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 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.

๐ŸŒ™๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒ™๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒ™๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒ™๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒ™๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒ™๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒ™๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŒŒ๐ŸŒ™๐ŸŽ€๐ŸŒŒ

Have you ever secretly dreamed about having the power of the moon so you could fight monsters? Or maybe you wished you were the terrifying aliens invading Earth instead? This party is all about transforming into your ultimate magical self, whether that be someone fighting for the future of the planet or a villain looking to sow chaos and destruction. Come in your best sailor suit complete with sparkly gems or break out the leather, lace, and an intimidating cape. You get to choose which side you’re on and what your powers will be.

Coronavirus Update #3

Going on 30 months into a pandemic, Eutopia Rising continues to hold high standards for how we keep each other safe. We seek to balance social, emotional and physical need with input, disability awareness and medical understanding in an evolving set of practices to minimize harm. We hosted virtual events throughout 2020 and 2021 as long as we had capacity, and very carefully resumed in-person events in October 2021.

Hereโ€™s what we are doing:

  • Solar events are held outdoors when possible, and when held indoors are well-ventilated, masks and distancing expected.
  • Attending Lunar events like Never Surrender requires full vaccination for COVID-19 as defined by the CDC, but our requirements exceed those currently recommended by the agency. Voyagers must test negative on a rapid antibody test in the 24 hours prior to the event, must feel well without cough, runny nose, fatigue, body ache, fever, etc., and have no recent exposures to anyone with a confirmed positive test. All attendees must arrive masked, and anyone who arrives without submitting a current test result through our secure form will be asked to take a test and remain outside until the results are negative.
  • Due to limited availability of Monkeypox vaccines, we do not yet require vaccination to attend. However, we do ask that nobody attend Lunar events with symptoms such as rash, lesions, fatigue, body aches, swollen lymph nodes, or fever. We take additional hygiene precautions with skin and fluid contact in mind.
  • We offer full refunds on event tickets in the case of a positive result on a rapid antibody test, potential exposure to anyone with a confirmed positive test result, development of concerning symptoms, or any other reason that a voyager believes they should stay home for their own safety or that of our community. Please contact us at events@eutopia-rising.org to request a refund on your event ticket.
  • A key element of keeping each other safe is open and honest communication around health and risk factors. We discuss and model how to have these conversations in a positive, non-judgemental way during our events, and we strongly encourage voyagers to be proactive about their concerns. Safety monitors and event staff will be introduced at the beginning of each event. We also reach out to all event attendees afterwards for feedback and remind them to contact us if they test positive after one of our events. For any concerns before or after our events, we can be reached at events@eutopia-rising.org.
  • If you would like to stay connected to what we currently have going on, we encourage you to join us on the Eutopia Rising Community Discord. This is a great way to check out our community, even if youโ€™re not yet ready to become a voyager. Anyone may join who can follow the code of conduct, and it has been a transformative space for connecting and supporting each other.
  • If you would like to support the continued work of our brave crew of voluntqueers, please consider contributing to our Patreon.

We will survive and thrive, and we are going to do it together.

Coronavirus Update #2

These are scary times, friends. But it is in times like these that we most need to find ways to connect, we most need to find joy amid fear, we most need to remind ourselves that even separated by distance, we are united by love.

Here’s how we are going to be adapting to the current crisis here at Eutopia Rising:

  • Until further notice, we are cancelling or postponing all in-person workshops, parties, and other events. This will last at least through the end of March, at which point we will evaluate the situation and make another choice moving forward.
  • Eutopia Rising’s full focus as a collective is now on uniting community through online channels and mobilizing mutual aid through this crisis. The only event we are still planning for right now is the Shared Horizon Virtual Variety Show.
  • Horizon will primarily be used as a dropoff/rally point for transport of necessary supplies, and as the studio headquarters for our live streaming events, pending the current city guidance on travel and movement.
  • If you would like to stay connected to what we currently have going on, we encourage you to join us on the Eutopia Rising Community Discord. We are gathering there to share support and cute pics of ourselves and to plan our next moves.
  • If you would like to support the continued work of our brave crew of voluntqueers, please consider contributing to our Patreon campaign.

We will survive this scary time, and we are going to do it together.

With love,
Polyjuiced
