How it all began
It is not merely an event company but a space where participants engage in the reimagining of queer nightlife.
From Myth to Celebration: Infusing Ancient Queer Stories into Inspired Events.
Our mission is to cultivate a vibrant queer artist community in NYC's nightlife. Drawing inspiration from ancient aesthetics and queer histories, we weave together art, music, and individual expression. Our commitment is to create a space where the act of drawing comes to life for the audience, celebrating the multifaceted nature of queer identity. We invite you to immerse yourself in an enchanting realm, fostering connections and igniting conversations that transcend boundaries. SACRA is where the power and resilience of the queer spirit shine, providing a space for stories, friendships, and unity through artistic expression.
APOLLO
We are SACRA— meaning the rituals performed to worship ancient deities— because our platform embraces the profound essence of queer magic.
Rooted in the ancient practice of taking time for worship, SACRA brings together a constellation of art, dance, and mysteries of the occult.
SACRA encourages individuals to partake in a sacred experience, contributing to a collective ceremonial pyre that symbolically burns away troubles while rejoicing in the visionary landscape of the future.
It is a definition that transcends the conventional, inviting all to immerse themselves in the transformative power of ancient traditions and the celebration of modern queer identity.
Get To Know Us
Our story is one of shared aesthetics and adventurous exploration. United by a deep appreciation for ancient art, the occult, and mysticism, our journey has taken us to various corners of the world, witnessing their secrets. Fueled by this connection, we’ve decided to channel our passion into creating extraordinary events for the queer community who, like us, find inspiration in these unique aesthetics and cultural realms.

As a licensed architect and designer, I draw inspiration from a rich tapestry of diverse cultural sources. My creative influences span from ancient practices and folk customs to the timeless ideals of classical Greek and Roman architecture. I am guided by the principles of firmitatis, utilitatis, venustatis (stability, utility, and beauty) as articulated by the great Roman architect and engineer, Vitruvius. Beyond the realm of architecture, I explore the practices of fashion and jewelry design. In my artistic journey, I aspire to weave a sense of fantasy into my creations, aiming to catalyze a transformative experience for those who engage with and wear my work.

It's a given I have a passion for creating beauty. More importantly I believe in the power of story. Stories are the context in which humans understand and find meaning of information. I am fascinated by stories of any kind – film, books, videogames – I am exploring how they are produced and what they mean to us all. I believe it's through meaning that fulfillment is found. We make our own magic.
Every design has a story. For this reason I conjure illustrations that share my vision of the world and allow my viewers to find their own. I look forward to many more projects where I can collaborate, connect, and make modern magic with others.
