Love, Peace & Spades:

A Rather Fly Game Night

In a room buzzing with laughter, The LINE Hotel will be full with the undeniable presence of Black women who pour into their families, communities, and the people they love.

Our annual Black Women’s Appreciation Game Night will honor two remarkable women for their positive impact on our lives. It will be a hush harbor for every sister, mother, friend, and pillar who has ever held it down.

Games will be played, fun will be had, flowers will be given, and love will be felt!

Love, Peace & Spades™ is a community of creatives, professionals, and grassroots organizers who curate free, donation-based game experiences to honor, celebrate, and cherish our Black family heirlooms (e.g. Uno, Bid Whist, Tunk (or Tonk), Dominoes, and, of course, Spades).

In addition to gameplay, we offer pop-up experiences, skills-based education, tech/VR integration, a comprehensive directory of Black-owned businesses, game developers, and makers, plus an annual Spades tournament and festival for enthusiastic players.

About Us

🖤✌🏽♠️

Our mission is to curate Love, Peace & Spades™ as a modern-day “hush harbor,” a protected space created by and for Black people where we can promote intergenerational communion through music, tech, education, and play.

Love, Peace & Spades™ events and programming address social isolation and trauma commonly associated with past gaming experiences by reestablishing new and healthier relationships to gameplay through ‘Spades Academy,™ a curriculum-based activation for players to develop skills and strategies.
