Where: Modern Times Bookstore, SF
Details:
We all have something we believe in, right? We believe in love, joy, laughter. We believe in the healing powers of chicken soup or gluten free vegan organic tempeh vindaloo. We believe in sunshine and late nights and mist in the morning.
So take hold of your heart, strap on your shoes, and come join us this month and share a bit about what it is that you believe. (Our feature this month believes in bagels; now who doesn’t agree with that?)
