Brews, local art, and real conversation. ☕️🎨✨
Welcome to GOOD TROUBLE, a monthly drop-in coffee house and gallery hang right here at the 925 Maddox Gallery & LGBTQIA+ Center.
We built this space as a cozy, low-pressure home base for our community to gather, unwind, and celebrate local trans and queer creators. Whether you need a chill spot to answer emails, want to check out fresh art, or just feel like hanging out over a warm cup of coffee or tea—there’s always a seat saved for you.
Drop in for 20 minutes between errands or hang with us all afternoon!
