Dry River will be hosting a day of celebrations and werkshops this Sunday from Noon to 8pm!

All folks are welcome to participate in an event with International Women's Day in mind!

so far we have several werkshops that will be happening, and this is a call out to people, especially women, to come with more ideas for werkshops, skillshares, or discussions they would like to see and make happen!

we know it's short notices, but.............. get inspired! we'll be making flyers in 24 hours (friday afternoon!) with hopefully a more complete schedule of events.. here's what we have so far:

2pm--- Mad Mapping, a mental health excercize, exploration werkshop

4pm--- "Herb Share" please bring herbs for tea or to share in whatever way and/or herbal info to share! We'll talk about Women's Herbs and maybe take a walk to the community garden and see a few of these lovely medicines in action! We'll be making an herbal liniment with Calendula! and more....!

5:30-6:30pm--- Every week there is an existing Clean & Sober group that meets, this will be happening in confidentiality either in the courtyard or the back room!
