Ego tells us many things through our life: what is right and wrong, what to do next, and what to let go of. On this night, as memories spiral upwards out of the ego of a singular mind, we weave them into a rising constellation of a shared experience.

Shadow Traffic has engineered a delightfully unique method of guiding you from the terrestrial plane to our secret skyward space. Take a journey to the roof: an urban prairie, a vast terrain, a frontier of possibility. Your night will lead you to a collection of campfire stories facilitated by local storytellers. Each of our carefully curated entertainers will draw you to the heart of what connects us to each other and the stories that bind our fascination. Artfully crafted ‘campfires’ are at the core at a number of story circles and when the blaze goes up, we wish to draw you away from the shiny distraction or the hot new thing — just get lost in the story.

Meet a new friend, a lost soulmate, a strange companion, and recall memories as you gaze into the city skyline, filled with infinite combinations of communion.

Please note: The meeting location is Project Parlor on Myrtle Ave. At 7:30pm the first group may go to our secret rooftop location. Feel free to come earlier in order to have a drink. The last group can head to the roof no later than 8:15pm. Please make sure you have arrived and have taken care of your biological inputs/outputs before that time. Bathrooms are available at the rooftop location by emergency only, please. This event ends at 10:30pm, with a casual follow-up gathering planned back at Project Parlor.
