Community Calendar

Our 'Snacks + Social Justice' series is BACK! On Friday, March 20, 5:30-7pm, join the High Five team and special guest, somatic therapist Luke King!

Learn somatic techniques for staying grounded while fighting fascism and write notes of gratitude for local organizations on the frontlines—all while snacking on gluten-free treats from our bookseller Corrie's radical activist cookbook, THE REVOLUTION WILL BE WELL FED.

Somatics begin at 6pm. All ages are invited. Participation is free and no registration is necessary. Join us!
