🍽️ A Gathering in Color. A Table of Liberation.

This Juneteenth, Blaq Linq invites you to gather differently.

Not just in a room—
but at the table.
Not just in community—
but in communion.

Paint & Shade The Stigma returns—reimagined as a seated, immersive brunch experience where art, storytelling, and collective healing unfold in real time.

In the spirit of Juneteenth, we honor freedom not just as history—but as a living, breathing practice.
A freedom to feel. To express. To be seen. To rest. To heal—out loud and in community.

Because liberation doesn’t only live in protest.
Sometimes, it lives at the table.

✨ What awaits you:

🍽️ A curated, southern-inspired brunch experience
🎬 Feature film in collaboration : “And We Rest On Giants”
💬 Post-screening conversation with community voices
🎨 Immersive paint experience + LIVE model canvas
🎤 Spoken word, reflection, and collective presence

Each moment—an offering.
Each table—a space to be witnessed.

📍 Dallas, TX
🗓️ Saturday, June 20, 2026
⏰ 12 PM – 4 PM

🎟️ Limited seating. Tickets begin at $30 and will increase as capacity fills.

🕊️ A portion of proceeds supports organizations advancing HIV awareness, advocacy, and healing.

This isn’t just brunch.
It’s a living table of truth, legacy, and love.

Paint & Shade The Stigma

01/12/2026

🎨 Gratitude in full color.

We’re honored to be featured in the Dallas Voice SCENE section (Issue 01.09.26) for Paint & Shade The Stigma Vol. 2 — an immersive evening of live body art + radical storytelling for World AIDS Day — now on newsstands.

Thank you  for holding space for stories that center remembrance, resistance, and radical healing — and for amplifying community-led art that confronts HIV stigma with truth, tenderness, and courage.

✨ On Friday, December 5, 2025, we gathered in collective care. Bodies became canvases. Words became medicine. Art carried what language alone could not — honoring those we’ve lost, uplifting those living + thriving with HIV, and reminding us that healing is not solitary.

💬 Paint & Shade The Stigma Vol. 2 was more than an event — it was presence, it was memory, it was a refusal to let stigma speak louder than love.

We’re deeply grateful to every artist, model, storyteller, partner, and community member who showed up and made the night unforgettable.

Come for the color.
Stay for the connection.
Leave transformed.
