Stonewall Chico is partnering with BLACC 530 to host the 4th annual Chico Black History Month Pop-Up on Saturday, Feb 28th 2026. It will feature live-printed t-shirts by Pedal Press, and performances by Scout the Wise (musician) and Absinthe Vicious (drag.)

This gathering is appropriate for the whole family and whole community. It features music, live performances, and free resources alongside an outdoor market fair of Black vendors including art and craft, food, apparel and style, and and more.

This event is free to attend, but Stonewall Chico will host a benefit for the QTPOC Direct Aid Fund to help local people of color experiencing emergencies. Please stop by Stonewall Chico’s booth to purchase a t-shirt, sweatshirt, or other apparel with a one of our original hand-drawn designs and all proceeds will be donated to the fund.

A full lineup of events by, for, and about (in advocacy for) the Trans and Nonbinary Community come to Stonewall Chico every March, and this year we’re excited to roll out some new events for Trans Month.

Events include a “Know Your Trans Rights” training from Legal Services of Northern California (LSNC), educational panels for both parents and for educators, an all-gender clothing swap, a legal name and gender-marker changing workshop, and a self-defense class from community partner Nor Cal Resist.
