Farren's at the Inman

10/10/2026

We’re trying something new at Farren’s: The Late Night Tea. A little late-night talk-show energy with a Second City vibes-and with limited seating, you’ll feel close enough to be a part of the conversation.

Chris Hightower (TopTen Topher) is hosting, with Em Brown (Em Brown) and Comedienne Rai (Rae) joining him. A-Ron will be providing the sounds.

We’ve curated tea cocktails for the occasion and put together a limited food menu for the evening. Come hungry. Order something good to eat. Nothing fancy—just good vibes & funny people with plenty to talk about.

October 21 - 7–9 PM
Farren’s at the Inman
Tickets cover admission. Food and drinks are available to purchase separately.

Bring your “we need to get together soon” friend. This counts.

We’re hosting our first art event at Farren’s! 🎨
From the beginning, we’ve imagined the Gatherie as a gallery—a place where people can come together, enjoy art, and connect. We’re so excited to see that vision come to life.
Come celebrate this first with us, take in the art, and gather with friends. See you soon!

Illinois Soul x Champaign County Community Coalition invite you to an evening at Farren’s that moves you through space, story, and sound 🖤✨

As part of the Art & Soul event series, Room to Room brings together visual art, immersive media, and community in a one-night, multi-sensory experience. This event series is a part of the City of Champaign’s Sound Check Grant Program.

Stacey A. Robinson presents Afrofuturist art rooted in Black liberation theory; his work imagines Black futures by building them now.

Matt Harsh of Harsh Pro. brings immersive projection art and live video, blending painting, photography, and digital media into experiences that transform with the room.

🖌 Two artists. Three rooms. Each a different world.
