You are warmly invited to attend our next Unplugged Gathering in Victoria-- at Caffe Fantastico Quadra Village! Our previous unplugged gatherings have been beautiful evening of warmth, fun, & connection. Since our July 4th Unplugged Gathering falls during Victioria Pride Week, we especially welcome 2SLGBTQIA+ commUnity and Allies! Take a pause, unplug, and reconnect. Leave your devices behind and immerse yourself in an intentional evening away from screens & notifications. Bring your knitting, craft supplies, favourite games, and that book you’ve been meaning to finish, and enjoy in person conversations, genuine connections, or solitude in the company of others... and a hot or cold beverage and delicious cafe food options. Lots of gluten-free options too! Check out the menu here: https://caffefantastico.com/pages/roastery CONTRIBUTIONS: Your $5 & Up contribution helps cover the costs of organizing, postering, & promoting this event and any surplus goes into a fund for covering the cost of games, art & craft supplies, (and potentially acoustic musicians:) for future Unplugged Gatherings.
