Meet the Co-Founders

The Free Collective is a proudly Queer Latina-led organization.

  • Co-founder of The Free Collective, a Denver-based organization dedicated to creating healing third spaces. With a background in business marketing, events, and mixology, Beccah brings her passion for socially conscious gathering and mutual aid to life through innovative pop-ups and workshops.

    Her expertise in mixology allows her to craft unique, health-conscious beverages that enhance the intentional experiences The Free Collective creates. She is deeply committed to supporting causes that inspire meaningful change and believes in the power of joy as resistance. As a co-founder, Beccah focuses on building empowered teams and sustainable systems that align with The Free Collective's mission to connect and uplift the community.

  • Jeanette "DJ Rewild" brings her creative vision and business expertise to life. Originally from Nogales, AZ—a vibrant bordertown rich in culture and family roots—Jeanette’s passion for community and artistic expression runs deep. She spent part of her adult life as a Wildcat in Tucson, AZ, where she honed her skills in marketing and business, earning an MBA that fuels her entrepreneurial approach.

    DJ Rewild specializes in crafting immersive experiences that foster connection, joy, and healing. Her work is centered on building spaces where music, art, and mutual aid intersect to inspire meaningful change. Through The Free Collective, she is dedicated to creating a socially conscious gathering space that not only uplifts but also gives back, ensuring that love, culture, and sustainability remain at the heart of every event.

Our mission is to revolutionize the art of gathering by creating healing third spaces that foster love, curiosity, and community. We believe in the power of conscious gathering and mutual aid to inspire meaningful change, building a sustainable, empowered, and connected world.

Mission

Vision

We envision a world where every gathering is a catalyst for healing, connection, and transformation. By creating inclusive, accessible spaces that nurture local food and beverage, healing music, and empowered community, we seek to inspire a global movement of conscious gathering—empowering individuals to build stronger, more resilient networks. Through mutual aid, dialogue, and joy as resistance, we aim to break down barriers and create a world where everyone has the opportunity to thrive through the art of gathering.

Our History

The Free Collective, LLC was established on July 7, 2024.

In the wake of a protest on June 26, 2024, Jeanette and Beccah stood amid the chaos, envisioning something greater—a sanctuary where joy itself became an act of resistance. They dreamed of a space pulsing with healing music, movement, and libations—a third space where creativity and community could thrive beyond the noise of the world. From that vision, The Free Collective was born, not just as a gathering place but as a force for mutual aid and cultural revolution. Since its inception, it has sparked a movement, inspiring events and initiatives that amplify its mission.

Key Milestones:

  • Community Engagement: The Free Collective has successfully organized pop-up fundraisers and events in the Denver area, focused on supporting mutual aid projects and creating healing third spaces for our communities.

  • Impact Statistics: In just a few short months, we raised over $3,000 for a family in Gaza. This early success highlights our commitment to growth and our mission of fostering connection and empowerment within our community.

As we move forward, we aim to expand our initiatives and projects to continue making a meaningful impact and achieve our overarching goals.
