Ranting for a Reason with Tricia Hersey

Friday, March 21st

Let's be honest, a lot of us have things to rant about. This is your opportunity. Hosted by Tricia Hersey (founder & Nap Bishop of The Nap Ministry), and culminating in a keynote rant, "Ranting for a Reason" is an opportunity for us to rant together, listen to music, have some drinks, and welcome in new spring energy.

The $25 ticket cost goes directly to Free Street Theater, a local social justice arts & culture organization, paying artists to create original work about Chicago (freestreet.org).

When you buy a ticket you enter for your chance to rant. On the evening of the event, ten random names will be pulled, each being given 3 minutes to rant about their chosen issue. Ranters will be asked ahead of the event what their topic is to make sure that their rant aligns with our community agreements.

Don't want to rant but still want to come? Just select "Not ranting" when purchasing your ticket.
