And this one feels EXTRA special. 🥹🌈 ✨ A Chicano-owned, queer-owned, community-rooted business, is opening its doors and welcoming The Queer Mercado into their space. ✨ Dulce Café y Cocina and its sister location Dulce Cafeina @dulcecafeinabh are dedicated to serving joy through delicious food and drinks. Their cafés are rooted in community. They celebrate Chicano and Mexican culture through great food, service, and a sense of belonging. They believe that everyone is welcome, that food is love, and that community is something worth celebrating. And we couldn’t be more grateful that they’ve chosen to open their doors to us and help create a space where queer people, families, friends, and allies can gather, connect, celebrate, and simply feel at home. 🏳️‍🌈❤️ This is exactly the kind of community-building we believe in. 🫶🏽 Come out, shop with our incredible queer vendors, support local artists and makers, grab something delicious from Dulce, and show some love to the businesses along the First Street corridor. When our communities show up for one another, we all thrive. 💪🏽✨ This is about creating visibility, economic support, queer joy, and being in community. And this is about making sure queer families know there are safe, welcoming spaces for them in Boyle Heights.🌈🏠💖 Thank you, Dulce Cafeína, for opening your doors and making room for us. We are so honored to gather in your space and bring our Queer Mercado family to BH. 🌈✨ #TheQueerMercado #BoyleHeights #DulceCafeina #LaCasaDelMusico #MariachiPlaza
