This one's personal.

Last June, Chicago lost Thomas Bowers — board member, community tentpole, and the reason so many of us found each other. Thomas had a 4/20 tradition of friends, fisting, and the kind of energy that kept people coming back year after year. 

This year we're bringing the family back together to honor him the way he'd want. Clad in rubber, gimped out, and fully present for one another.

Whether you knew Thomas or are just learning his name today, you're welcome here. Come help us celebrate a man who built community with his whole hands and heart. 

Rubber, gimp, and drone attire is a beautiful tribute — but never required. Free coat check, cash bar, and limited entry window. Please arrive between 4–5PM.
