A Braver Chicago

As June approaches, a month heralded worldwide for celebrating love, identity, and resilience, Brave Space Alliance x Tie Bar are joining hands in a groundbreaking collaboration set to illuminate Pride festivities with purpose and style.

At the heart of this partnership lies Brave Space Alliance, a trailblazing non-profit nestled on the South Side of Chicago. Founded as the first Black-led, trans-led LGBTQ+ Center in the city, Brave Space Alliance embodies a profound mission: to foster affirming, culturally competent spaces where individuals from marginalized communities can flourish. Their dedication to providing resources, programming, and services tailored specifically for LGBTQ+ individuals on the South and West sides epitomizes their collective empowerment and liberation ethos.

Tie Bar has long been a beacon of style for individuals who seek to express themselves authentically. With their finger firmly on the pulse of contemporary culture, we are thrilled to bring a fresh perspective to the table, poised to merge fashion with advocacy in a manner that resonates deeply with Brave Space Alliance’s ethos.

This collaboration, born from a shared vision of inclusivity and social progress, is poised to make waves during Pride month. All proceeds generated from sales in June will be directly contributed to our friends at Brave Space Alliance, with 50% of proceeds from subsequent months also pledged to support their cause.
