About

Punctuate Pride Month with an exclamation point! Named after our signature pride month latte, Rainbow in the Dark Fest is a combo music fest, fundraiser, and organizing fair. You've already come to love Chapel of Bones as a safe, welcoming community space. In these dark times, let us shine a light on groups right in our community who are helping lift up others in direct, tangible ways.

 

Right now, it is easy to feel helpless, hopeless, and directionless, but Rainbow in the Dark Fest can connect you with organizations right here in the NC Triangle who will give you a way to support yourself and others: no allegiance to a political candidate, just good old fashioned humanitarianism. Learn about fighting that good fight while you headbang and dance to performances ranging from black metal to hip hop, shop local vendors, and hit up the bar for potions and poultices you can't find anywhere else.
