Description

Join some of the PDX bootblacks for a deliciously decadent evening of community, conversation, and cake.

Let Them Eat Cake is more than a party; it’s a ritual. A bootblack tradition born of care, kink, and the sacred art of leather love. For decades, bootblacks have been polishing not just boots, but bonds. This gathering honors that legacy.

We invite all bootblacks, past, present, and future, as well as those who love them, to reconnect and reignite the vibrant Portland bootblack scene. Bring your stories, your desire to heal scuffs in community, and your appetite.

✨ We'll have cake to share, towels for cleanup, and a space to remember why this tradition matters.

Let’s build something beautiful together, one bite at a time.

Feel free to bring your kit and gear to skill share!
