    DC Black Pride weekend is sacred. And every year, we carve out a little corner of it just for us.

    Lesbifriends Travel invites you to Qute & Queer 4.0, our annual DC Black Pride house party at the home of Lesbifriends Travel's founder. Four years in and this one just keeps getting better.

    If you have been before, you already know. If you have not, here is what we will tell you: this is not a club, not a networking event, and definitely not a scene. This is an intimate kickback with the right music, the right people, and a private space where you can actually hear someone and be present with your community.

    DC Black Pride weekend is a lot of things. Loud, beautiful, full, unforgettable. And somewhere in the middle of all of that, your body, mind, and spirit deserve a moment to exhale.
    Lesbifriends Travel is linking up with We BE Walkin' for Walk, Breathe, Rise for a Sunday morning nature gathering designed to slow the weekend down in the best way possible. Think fresh air, a scenic walk through the U.S. National Arboretum, a grounding yoga flow with Devyn of Surrender + Flow, light snacks, and meaningful connection with your community. This is how we close out Black Pride. Soft, intentional, and together.
