Where curiosity is celebrated
At Atheists United, we understand better than anyone the importance of creating a safe, secular space for people to explore their ideas, identities, and values. Youth should be celebrated, not shamed, for asking honest questions.
According the US Secular Survey:
- 15% lower rate of depression among youth active in a local secular community
- More than a third of secular youth had negative experiences with family due to their nonreligious identity
- One third of secular youth had negative experience in education due to their nonreligious identity
- Nearly 50% of young people are religiously unaffiliated

Picnic in the Park (South Pasadena)
Garfield Park, 1000 Park Avenue, South Pasadena, CA, USJoin us for a family-friendly community picnic in beautiful Garfield Park in South Pasadena.
Bring a meal, a snack, or whatever else makes you happy. We’ll provide a casual, pressure-free space to hang out with other atheists so you can enjoy a secular Sunday morning.
Sometimes we’re on the grass and we recommend you bring a blanket or lawn chair.
The park is dog-friendly, kid-friendly (playground!) and has bathrooms.
Look for the Atheists United signage (and the gaggle of happy heathens) by the picnic tables near the playground. Our exact location in the park will vary depending on table availability.
Can’t wait to see you there!
