A cultural experience dedicated to our most storied card games.

On Oct. 21st, Spades Academy by Love, Peace & Spades at Our House brings together seasoned experts and coaches, curious first-timers, and players looking to rebuild their skills for our once-a-month gatherings filled with strategy, laughter, and connection. 

From Bid Whist to Tunk/Tonk to Dominoes to Spades, these games have deep roots in our culture and have long been a key ingredient for fellowship and generational exchange. 

What to expect when you attend: Play & Learn: Tables for both experienced card game players and those eager to learn the ropes. Culture & Community: A warm, inclusive “hush harbor that celebrates the heritage of our play traditions.

Wine & Food Vibes: South LA Wine Club’s curated wines will be available for pour, while Chef Binta’s WithBEE, Afro-Caribbean cuisine, will serve lite bites throughout the night.
