Love, Peace & Spades:
A Rather Fly Game Night
Black Love Day marks the start of the 2026 Love, Peace & Spades season, featuring ranked Spades games, open play sessions, music, food, and pure joy.
This gathering is a true celebration of connection, Black History Month, love, and our favorite #BlackFamilyHeirloms—Spades, Bid Whist, Tunk/Tonk, Dominoes, Uno, and more.
Whether you’re coming with your Valentine, your crew, or solo, this is a space to pull up, make a new friend, and enjoy the fun at the table.
Love, Peace & Spades is bringing the Best Game Night in Los Angeles to the Rivian Showroom, a beautiful, future-forward space to play, chill, drink, eat, and explore free Rivian truck test drives while you’re here.
#AllPlayersWelcome to pull up and play at this free event at 660 Venice Blvd.
Love, Peace & Spades™ is a community of creatives, professionals, and grassroots organizers who curate free, donation-based game experiences to honor, celebrate, and cherish our Black family heirlooms (e.g. Uno, Bid Whist, Tunk (or Tonk), Dominoes, and, of course, Spades).
In addition to gameplay, we offer pop-up experiences, skills-based education, tech/VR integration, a comprehensive directory of Black-owned businesses, game developers, and makers, plus an annual Spades tournament and festival for enthusiastic players.
About Us
🖤✌🏽♠️
Our mission is to curate Love, Peace & Spades™ as a modern-day “hush harbor,” a protected space created by and for Black people where we can promote intergenerational communion through music, tech, education, and play.
Love, Peace & Spades™ events and programming address social isolation and trauma commonly associated with past gaming experiences by reestablishing new and healthier relationships to gameplay through ‘Spades Academy,™ a curriculum-based activation for players to develop skills and strategies.
