What is Third Cup?

Founded by Kendra Austin in December 2022, Third Cup is a community collective and dinner party facilitating vulnerable friendships between women, femmes, and non-gender conforming people. We believe in the transformative power of healing through connection.

Ray Oldenburg coined the term “third place,” a meeting space for community building outside of work and home. Rider-Waite-Smith’s tarot card, 3 of Cups, is a card representing community, friendship, and celebration. A love child of these two concepts, Third Cup is here to solve for the loneliness caused by patriarchy, white supremacy, and capitalism in virtue of building a safer and softer world.

Come enjoy great food, specialty cocktails, and an opportunity to meet your new best friends. While the dinner party is our crown jewel event, we also offer monthly activations for our beloveds to congregated around hobbies and shared interests.

Our guests are free to connect however they feel comfortable - with an open heart always. For creatives, spiritualists, and lovers alike.
