Event Description
Join us every Saturday at 11:00 AM for freshly brewed coffee, delicious vegan doughnuts, and an amazing community! Social justice movements have always started with community, from the Quaker church to the more recent rise of LGBT community centers. As animal rights activists, we too need a space for training, support, and encouragement. So come join us!
Also If it's your birthdat this week, PLEASE message Kitty Jones (facebook.com/meanisjustmean) and let her know so we can acknowledge you! :)
