Faith in Harm Reduction: Love Feast

For our June Love Feast, on the theme of "Faith in Action: A Labor of Love," we'll be celebrating our inaugural Faith in Harm Reduction Community Ministry Fellows as they complete their first year in the program! They'll be sharing original reflections and sacred media as we break bread together for this month's community fellowship meal. As always, all are welcome as we continue to co-create a sanctuary space without stigma, where all are invited to sit and be in dialogue together at the table. We will have delicious food with vegan and gluten free options available, in partnership with the wonderful folks of EV Loves / Cafewal! Join us for a meal, join us to make meaningful connections, join us to heal.

RSVP or questions via info@harmreduction.org!

Streetworks x Housing Works: Kiki Ball

A Kiki Ball is a vibrant and affirming celebration rooted in ballroom culture—an expressive space where LGBTQ+ community members, primarily Black and Latinx youth, come together to showcase their creativity through fashion, dance (voguing), and performance. These gatherings offer newcomers a chance to practice their craft, build confidence, and be embraced by chosen families known as “houses.”

We’d be honored to have you join us for this meaningful evening. Your presence would mean a lot to the community, and we hope to see you there!

PEN America Festival
May

to May 2

PEN America Festival

The World Voices Festival is PEN America’s annual celebration of writers, international literature, and free expression. Taking place from April 29 through May 2, with more than 140 writers from 40 countries, this year’s festival is an insistence on the power of literature and cross-cultural dialogue. This gathering of writers from every part of the globe is a potent reminder—in fact, an antidote in an era of censorship, nativism, and renewed isolationism—that books drive culture and the stories we tell can shape and transform our lives.

On the Ground & At the Table: Harm Reduction LOVE FEAST EventS

For this month’s FIHR LOVE FEAST at JUDSON we are opening our fellowship meal to a deeply needed and welcomed collaboration – with mutual aid organizers on the ground in Jerusalem and Gaza, alongside local faith leaders and organizers working in collaboration with their efforts, at home and abroad. What can we learn from each other? What can we gain from sitting in communion with others doing faith-led resistance to reduce and combat the harm caused by empire’s carceral, extractive, stigmatizing systems of control and chaos? Our Harm Reduction Ministry Fellows and leadership team will be joined for this special joint meal by speakers, participants and guests from the afternoon’s “On the Ground” event at 2pm , co-hosted by Judson and the American Council on Judaism in partnership with Rabbis for Ceasefire, The Community Church of New York, Middle Church, and the 15th St Quaker Meeting.

Our namesake, the incomparable Marsha “Pay It No Mind” Johnson, beyond being an activist, artist and sex worker, was a model and fashion juggernaut.
