Welcome to Litberation’s Inauguration and very first candle workshop! When you close your eyes and inhale, what does Freedom smell like to you? What do you see? During this very unique event, you’ll explore this question by creating your own fragrance that takes you to the place that makes you feel the most liberated.

You will blend 3-5 fragrance oils to create your signature scent, based on the image that freedom conjures up for you. Then, you will create a candle from scratch, which you will pour into a decorative vessel that will complement your home decor. At the end of the event, you’ll get to take home one of your definitions of freedom that you can meditate on whenever you light it.

Location

This event will be held at Dorothy’s Cafe, Austin’s newest hidden gem and Latin-owned LGBTQ+ Cafe owned by Alex Lopez; a passionate nonbinary pastry chef who is committed to creating an inclusive haven through culinary artistry and community building. Dorothy’s is especially known for their delicious conchas! But Dorothy's ATX Café is more than just a cafe, it is a LatinX Queer-Owned Safe Space that proudly celebrates its Mexican roots and LGBTQIA2S+ pride. When creating the name, Alex was inspired by the phrase , “Friend of Dorothy”, which dates back to WWII and served as a secret code to protect gay men from hostility as they tried to build community.

Join us for events like Drag Trivia, Drag Loteria, and D&D Wednesdays, where every moment is infused with fun and entertainment!
