-Wednesday, Jan. 16th, 6pm:  Rojava Solidarity SC

The people of Rojava are engaged in one of the most liberatory social projects of our time. Please join us for the first meeting of Rojava Solidarity Santa Cruz. Let's build a community of interest to learn more about Rojava and provide support to its people!

-Thursday, Jan. 17th, 7:30pm:  Open Stage!

SubRosa's take on Open Mic. Once a month. Every month. Sign ups at 7:30pm. Show at 8! Each act will get 5-10 minutes depending on the evening.

This is a space for performance of all kinds. A space to be witnessed in your work. Performance art. Drag. Dance. Poetry. Music. Essays. Rants. Interactive games. Magic. This is an Open Stage.

With a critique of capitalism and acknowledgement of intersectional systems of oppression, we honor and wish to uplift less heard voices including those of queer, trans, femme, people of color and indigenous folks. We strive to create a brave space where we work with what and who is in the room. 

We hope for this space to serve the radical performing artists in Santa Cruz and are open to collaboration!

Donations accepted and appreciated.

-Friday, Jan. 18th, 6pm & 8pm:  Movie Screening! Be Kind, Rewind / My Entire High School Sinking Into the Sea!

WOW! Come to this super silly surreal screening this Friday— at 6pm, Be Kind, Rewind & at 8pm, My Entire High School Sinking Into the Sea! Fun junk, mildly trippy visuals, loose plots that seem like they're going nowhere but end up somewhere!  https://www.facebook.com/events/2153458834983575/

-Sunday, Jan. 20th:  Three Happenings!

     12:30pm - 2:30pm:  Winter Collage Session! with Whitney Sparks

Comments on the SubRosa website are fully moderated. As a collective, we agreed that the purpose of the website was to promote SubRosa, not to provide an online place for lively and invigorating debate. We hope that the space itself is where conversations on the nature of anarchism and local projects will take place. That said, we occasionally approve comments that are informative or reflect a viewpoint we feel it is important for website visitors to read.
