As The Imperial Sovereign Court of All Connecticut celebrates 25 years of doing good in our state and community, we also want to celebrate the folx who we support. Many of our members are involved in other organizations, and we are invited to attend / perform at their events. We always have an amazing time with our CT Leather Family at their S4 event. S4 stands for Suds & Sins, a Sunday Social. This event has been going on for over 20 years and we are proud to be a part of this tradition. This year the reigning CT leather Mr. Loves Alot has collected donations for D.E.S.K, Downtown Evening Soup Kitchen located in New Haven, and supported various other charities. Come see what we all do best, giving back!

Our Home Bar

The Imperial Sovereign Court of All CT is proud to call The Chez Est, Hartford’s only LGBTQ+ Restaurant | Bar |Cabaret our home bar. They have been proudly serving ALL of the community for over 47 years! All walks of life call the Chez Home, and they affectionately toute “There’s Something for Everyone”

“The Chez has been a cornerstone of the community since it was established in 1976. Known for its vibrant atmosphere and inclusive environment, Chez Est has long been a safe haven for LGBTQ+ individuals seeking camaraderie and entertainment. Over the decades, it has hosted numerous events, including drag shows, dance parties, and charity fundraisers, solidifying its role as a cultural hub. Despite challenges and the evolving nightlife scene, Chez Est has remained steadfast, adapting, and thriving as a beloved institution in Hartford’s social landscape. The Chez Est has survived three owners, two fires, a relocation, and a pandemic. It is not just a bar, nightclub, restaurant, cabaret, or community space; it is a living and breathing part of the local queer community.”

Reign XXVI Investitures

On Sunday, March 16th we officially kicked off Reign XXVI with our Investitures! Our first event where our council bestowed new titles to members, introduced our beneficiaries and offered a glimpse into our reign!  The titles given to members vary from one chapter to another and are primarily left to the discretion of the Reign, but the titles awarded were Imperial Crown Princess, Princess, Duchess / Scion and Viscountess.  A huge congratulations to those who did receive an elevation, you all deserved them.  Other appellations bestowed resemble offices or professions within a medieval or modern noble court rather than titles of nobility, such as “Court Jester” or “Chancellor of the Realm” and so forth. These titles may be as serious-sounding or as humorously campy as the monarchs wish. Titles are traditionally based upon those used by European nobility (especially the British Peerage)

As The Imperial Sovereign Court of All Connecticut celebrates 25 years of doing good in our state and community, we want to celebrate the folx who make our success possible, our members. Each week we will highlight one of our members and ask them questions about themselves and The ISC of All CT.

Today we highlight Emperor Trevor Reynolds:

• 1. When did you join the organization/how long have you been associated?
  • I have been a member of the ISC of All CT since 2001, over 20 years…Yikes!
• 2. How did you hear about the ISC of All CT?
  • I was dating my now spouse Michael Morgan (AKA Morgana de Luxe) and they told me about this organization they were involved in, and it sounded like it could be fun.
• 3. What interested you in joining the organization?
  • I wanted to give back to the LGBTQ+ community, and this was a great way to be involved and be philanthropic. I found the idea of royalty a unique and different way to raise money for worthy causes. And the bling is pretty cool too!
• 4. Please give 3 to 5 adjectives to describe the ISC of All CT?
  • Devoted, Passionate, Regal, Benevolent
• 5. What is your fondest memory/moment with the organization?
  • There are too many to have just one, but I would say after 12 years in the ISC of All CT, being crowned Emperor alongside my spouse. Not only did we reign together but lived together and worked for the same company! We did it and are still together 23+ years later. The places we went and the people we met were experiences I will never forget.
  • Another was spending the weekend with our beloved founder, Jose, at Vermont’s adornment. I was fortunate enough to have met Jose and seen them several times throughout the years. He was an amazing person and the stories he would tell…Oh my
• 6. Where would you like the organization to go in the future?
  • I would like to see us to continue to evolve, our community isn’t what is was 25 years ago and we need to change with it. We need to be a safe space for LGBTQ+ folx, continue to be a champion of our community and work with other organizations to further our mission.

Thank you for being there when I needed you, and I hope in my time I’ve been able to help others who needed it as well. Happy 25th Anniversary, Imperial Sovereign Court of All Connecticut!!!
