Open Mics
Creatives and Cocktails: FUBU
Kelly's Olympian 426 Southwest Washington St, PortlandHey there! I’d like to invite everyone to an open mic that Stay Litt will be hosting on November 8th. We’ll begin with a reading, featuring Rachelle Dixon who has recently published Between Sweetness and Spice: A Vegan Culinary Journey Across the Continents. The book is about their family’s culinary roots across the continents. Rachelle will read a few food stories from Between Sweetness and Spice and a sample recipe will be shared. After their reading, other creatives are invited and encouraged to come up and share their work too! Come make new friends!
