Rainbow Exchange Vendor's Market @ Speakeasy

Shake off the "January Blues" and kick off 2026 with a burst of color! The Lavender Social is back at Speakeasy in Carrboro for the first Rainbow Exchange Vendor Market of the year.

🌈 The Rainbow Exchange: New Year, Same Fabulous Vibes! 🌈 Did the holidays leave your wallet crying and your soul craving something actually original? Same.

 Why should you show up? Because January is long, and local artists are awesome. We’ve rounded up the finest LGBTQIA+ makers to help you spend that holiday cash (or those gift cards) on things that actually have a soul. Support your local creative community and keep our local economy as vibrant as a pride flag. Come grab a drink, meet the makers, and find that one thing you didn’t know you needed but now can’t live without.

⭐ But Wait, There's More! ⭐

Hang around once the market wraps up! Stick around Speakeasy after 7 PM for The Lavender Social's legendary QUEER CABARET & DANCE PARTY! The night kicks off with Cameron Price's Is Right Trivia (7-9 PM), followed by the show-stopping Queer Cabaret hosted by Amanduh Barron (9-11 PM), and then a Dance Party with NIHL until late! It's an all-day celebrationβ€”you won't want to miss a moment!
