Step into the candlelit mystique of Dorothy for Venusian Visions, a monthly tarot experience where Venus blends mediumship and spell work into intimate readings. Whether you're seeking spiritual guidance or simply curious about what the cards reveal, this pop-up offers a perfect excuse to descend into the lounge's moody 1970s-inspired sanctuary with fellow seekers and friends. Arrive early for conversation and cocktails, or stay late as the energy builds—this is tarot meets community in Chicago's most cherished lesbian gathering space. This event was imported by Out x Out.
