Every Second Wednesday · 16:00–18:00 · Free Entry · Villa Vida Café
No sign-up needed-just show up!

Lavender Lounge is Villa Vida’s cozy, community-centered queer arts-and-crafts hangout — a free creative space for anyone who wants to make art, relax, and connect with other queer people in Vienna.
Every second Wednesday, you can bring your own supplies, settle into a calm corner, and work on whatever brings you joy: painting, knitting, sketching, journaling, crochet, collage, or any DIY craft you love. No experience needed, no pressure, no expectations.
This is a soft, introvert-friendly space where newcomers and regulars mix easily. If you’re looking for a low-stress queer social event, this is it.
