“What’s a Stoke?”

Stoke is a local, queer-owned co-working space for entrepreneurs, artists, and community organizations.

On June 5, Stoke will open their doors for Pride! We’ll be networking, creating, expressing, collaborating, and clacking away on our laptops. Stoke will provide the free space, outlets, WiFi, and will also have some complimentary beverages on hand. Table/desk and outlet spaces are first-come, first-serve. This is a come-and-go event so hang out for as long or as little as you’d like.

This is just the place to explore your big ideas, connect with other community members, or maybe hunker down on a project you’ve been working on. So think about what you want to work on that day: Advocacy? Art? A passion project? Community-building? The PRIDENTON team will work alongside you, and we’ll be taking plenty of breaks to connect.
