Featured event
Time Travel Party @ Heretic House (Hosted by Atheists United)
Hey Meetup Friends,
You’re invited to Atheists United's first major gathering of the year on May 2nd! It’s a Time Travel Party… supporting a timely cause!
***
### Get Tickets
Want to cherish the past, go back to the future, or boldly go where no one has gone before? Join our annual community party in a 130-year-old Victorian mansion in Echo Park! (Costumes representing the past or future are encouraged, but never required.)
Our party will include:
- Live music
- Food & drinks
- Silent auction
- Private tour of Heretic House
(Check out pics from prior Time Travel parties here and here!)
***
### Gender-Inclusive Clothing Drive
It’s also a gender-inclusive clothing drive in support of the Los Angeles LGBT Center!
For the first time ever, we’re giving away free admission or drinks with a donation of clothing or makeup that meets the Center’s guidelines. (Alternatively, you can show proof of purchase from the LGBT Center’s Amazon wish list.)
***
### Let’s Leave Inequality in the Past
Our event is part of the American Empathy Project: a nationwide day of action showing that empathy is stronger than cruelty.
LGBTQ+ communities face higher rates of economic hardship. Trans and nonbinary people are often excluded from traditional clothing drives (like those with strict men’s/women’s sections). Items like binders, tucking garments, or more androgynous styles are not usually included.
We want clothing inequality to be history… and celebrate a brighter future for everyone!

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
