This is a wonderful time for community to share the personal/global/historical stories that have sustained us. We have much to share!
 
So...whether you come prepared to tell a story(share a poem, sing a song, or do a dance), whether you are so moved by what you experience that you spontaneously share, or whether you plan to simply listen...no matter what, you will be inspired!
 
And by the way....Mis. Mac will be there serving up her delicious fish, chicken dinners and sandwiches, desserts and more (for purchase)!!
 
So don't miss out.....JOIN US!!!
