WHAT DO WE DO? We create compassionate social circles, online and in-person. Meet ups, study adventures, excursions, athletic, arts and music events. Justice for the rights of voters, women, Black Lives, LGBTQ Lives. Be sure to check out Justice Action Fridays, year round.

SisterScene Team experiences are thoughtfully designed to foster positive social connections. Rooted in the values of abundance mindset, mutual respect, and non-judgment, we embrace differences and create a welcoming space for everyone.

Imagine how joining together amplifies positive impact on the world! Sister Scene multiplies this synergy. You belong here. — Brianna & Marie, Born in the Year 2000, Durham Public School Grads. UNC Chapel Hill Alum, 2021.

We believe in the power of the Solidarity Dividend, a concept coined by Heather McGhee. It’s what happens when people come together across racial and social lines to create positive change for the common good.

How are sisterhoods like ours born?
It all started with two Durham Public School buddies—our young co-founders, born in the year 2000, who inspire us to this day. Together, we imagine, amplify, and synergize to make a positive impact on the world.

What happens when we share? Intersectional Synergy!
