Mission

Our mission is to build strong relationships, create economic, opportunity and inspire possibility for women, BIPOC, femme, queer, transgender and gender nonconforming individuals in an accessible, supportive, safer space.


About

We are a 2,100 sq. ft. community-led event space in Brooklyn, NY where 100% of our programming is led by self-identified women, BIPOC, femme, queer, transgender and gender nonconforming individuals. We envision a world where all people — regardless of their color, culture, gender identity, expression or presentation — are affirmed with dignity, respect and are given abundant access to the resources and opportunities they need to prosper and thrive. We envision this world to be free of the rigidity of white supremacist, heteronormative, capitalist, patriarchal systems of oppression and work to dismantle these structures through the resilient creation and proliferation of community spaces owned and operated by the people most directly impacted.

NWS generates revenue and maintains its operations through the following activities: sustaining memberships, events, space rental, retail store, event café, and resident programming.
