Bonfire - Colorado Springs

Bonfire brings people together in real-world spaces, to grow, learn, and spark change — together, in person. We’re building community right in your backyard, with events and gatherings that offer opportunities for personal, professional, and political engagement and fulfillment. If you are looking for connection and joy, seeking inspiration or have some to share, we have a seat by our fire for you! Bonfire was created for women of all ages and backgrounds, but is not exclusive to women. Created in partnership with the Red Wine & Blue Network, Bonfire groups are local communities led by volunteer organizers who want to bring people together where they live. The RWB Network provides the tools, training, and support to help these groups grow and thrive — while keeping community building at the center. Bonfire Colorado Springs brings together value-aligned women in the COS area to create meaningful relationships where everyone feels valued, respected, and empowered to contribute. We gather monthly in member homes and local spots throughout The Springs where we lead with empathy, compassion, and kindness to build the community we want to live in. OUR BONFIRE VALUES > Inclusivity & Dialogue > Authenticity > Curiosity & Collaboration > Justice & Democracy > Local Impact > Joy
