The Whole Alphabet, So Say We All’s LGBTQ+ Writers Workshop and Storytelling Series, takes to the stage for SD Pride this June! Join us at Thorn St. Brewing with our partners from Just Tryna Make Friends to showcase original true stories on the theme of “It’s Giving Mother.”

Whether about the actual moms we literally couldn’t live without, or the icons pop and personal who shaped the individuals we were always destined to become, we’ll hear all about the passing of the torch and what flowed downstream in the river of time.

Secret Kitchen: Holiday Cocktails & Amuse-Bouche with Friends

So Say We All welcomes you to be one of only 30 friends to join us for a magical spread, served to support our storytelling community.

In support of our Winter Fundraiser, we are honored to offer you a secret kitchen experience in the home of San Diego’s Pastry Pedaler, our friend and ally, Chef Dana Weimar with guest host Lindsay Abbott, as they dare to elevate us into the realm of fancy that can use the word “amuse-bouche” accurately. You still don’t need to dress fancy though to seize a new kind of night out that reminds you what food and friendship can be.

Secret Kitchen: Holiday Cocktails and Amuse-Bouche with Friends
Friday, December 8th
6:30pm - 10pm
Address: Personal home, Pacific Beach
(Location provided upon purchase of ticket)
