Creating a Basel Queer Conversations & Community Bubble

Let’s meet in a quiet circle to read, listen and feel together.

This evening is for poems, lyrics, queer voices and self expression. You’re invited to bring one thing that feels right to you:

• A queer poem
• A poem you love
• A poem you wrote yourself
• A song lyric or a quote that lives in your heart
• Or anything that feels poetic to you

If you don’t want to read it yourself, someone else can read it for you. No pressure to speak.

After the poetry round, we’ll play a few songs that people bring and maybe even sing them together or speak the lyrics aloud like poems.

This is not a performance space. It’s a little living room concert of feelings.

You can bring (optional):

• A warm drink or a mug, a blanket, a
scarf or something cozy
• A candle, if you feel like it
• Yourself, as you are

No stage. No judgment. Just poems, songs and queer presence.

I’ll be happy to sit in the circle with you, whether you come with a poem, a song or just your quiet presence.

There’s a theme, but no expectations.
You can share, listen, write, drink tea, play a song, or just be quiet.
The space is here for whatever you need.

Join us for a gentle evening of presence, soft rituals and quiet connection.

This is not a workshop or a performance. It’s a slow, warm circle for queer women, nonbinary, and FLINTA* folks to gather with no pressure to speak, no expectations to share.

We’ll open the space with a small ritual like lighting a candle, sharing a word or writing and releasing something we want to let go. You can simply witness or take part in your own way. Afterward, we’ll sit together, sip tea, and rest in quiet company. You’re welcome to bring an object (a poem, a stone, a blanket, a quote) or just come as you are.

Nothing to prove. Just space to be.
Quiet is a kind of connection.

Whether you’re feeling tired, tender, curious or just want to be held by a soft moment, you’re warmly invited.

There’s a theme, but no expectations.
You can share, listen, write, drink tea, play a song, or just be quiet.
The space is here for whatever you need.

This evening is for sharing moments of becoming. Those quiet or loud, joyful or painful stories that shaped how we’ve come into ourselves.

Whether you’ve come out once, many times or are still finding the words, this space is for you.
You’re welcome to tell your story, or just listen.
To speak from memory, read something you wrote or hold space for others.

There will also be a soft second theme:

“What do you wish someone had said to you?”
We’ll gently write or share the words we needed, then or now.

Tea will be warm. Light will be soft. Nothing is required.

Nothing to prove. Just space to be.
Quiet is a kind of connection.

You are welcome exactly as you are. And if you need to simply sit beside someone else’s story tonight, that’s more than enough.

There’s a theme, but no expectations.
You can share, listen, write, drink tea, play a song, or just be quiet.
