Wow.. crazy to think these photos were exactly 3 years ago during the renovation of our space. Can you guess which room is which?
ATTENTION REBELS: Cybertopia needs more volunteers, especially Story Actors, aka Narrative Operatives. This is your time to shine. No previous volunteering experience with us required. Read the site for all the shiny info and how to apply.
Isn't it interesting how 🌽 becomes a cultural mirror? And another way that queer SxWers are fighting from the front line? Story here: www.them.us/story/pornhu...

POLARITY. brings the dark pulse of the night to life. A multi-genre EDM DJ with a classical edge, they build cinematic sets that twist between melody and menace. Devil’s Night Rave - Nov 1st Wicked Eden | Alcohol free | 420 friendly AutonomyProject.org Step into the dark and see what follows.
Nebula takes you beyond the edge of the night. Her cosmic house and techno sets weave haunting rhythm into celestial sound. Expect dark grooves, hypnotic drops, and a pulse that feels like gravity giving way. Devil’s Night Rave - Nov 1 Wicked Eden | Alcohol free | 420 friendly AutonomyProject.org
An immersive, queer-centered rope and art experience featuring music, creative challenges, optional consent-based photography, stylized spaces, and peer-to-peer learning in a fully participatory, low-pressure, no-spectator environment. Yeah, it's the rope event you've been waiting for.
The veil is thin, and the dance floor is hungry. Mr Strongg is stepping in to feed it with a heavy mix of bass, house, dubstep, and trap that will shake the floor and pull you under. Devil’s Night Rave - Nov 1st Wicked Eden | Alcohol free | 420 friendly AutonomyProject.org Come dance in the dark
We honor the first protectors of this land, the keepers of language, ceremony, and resilience. Happy Indigenous Peoples day. Also: did you know our physical building is owned by an indigenous femme and held in trust for us indefinitely? Just some land back vibes 💪🏻
Last weekend's AP meetup at the Ohio Renaissance Faire was huge! Thanks to everyone who dressed up and showed out in their pirate-y best.
The circle is cast and the music is rising. On Devil’s Night, three DJs summon the beat, aerialists call down the sky, and the dance floor becomes our ritual ground. Step into the magic, take your place in the crowd, and move with us until morning. November 1st 7:30pm - 1:00am AutonomyProject.org
