The holidays can bring joy and ache for non-monogamous people (and grievers of all stripes—maybe you’re both). Family gatherings may highlight who is welcome and who is excluded. Some partners may be openly celebrated while others remain hidden. Breakups can ripple out through entire networks, resurfacing grief during a season that emphasizes togetherness. Traditions may be lost or reshaped as relationships shift, while old wounds can re-open around belonging, secrecy, and identity.

And yet, the season can also hold blessings—chosen family dinners, new rituals, unexpected moments of intimacy and connection, and the reminder that love does not fit into a single mold.

This gathering creates a space to name both the blessings and the blues, holding the fullness of what holidays can mean in polyam communities. Join us for PolyAm Holiday Blessings & Blues, a drop-in virtual gathering with grounding ritual, education, and open sharing space. Together we’ll honor both the light and the heaviness of the season.

December 5th | 7–8:30 pm ET | $10–$20 sliding scale (no one turned away)

Facilitated by Lori of @MoonvineGrief, Catherine of @DeathProjectManager, and Rowan of @UncommonThreadsTherapy.

Bring your grief, your blessings, and your whole self. We’ll meet you there.
