More About Event Partners:
After Hours is a community-minded, nomadic restaurant rooted in seasonality and locality. Operating as a nomadic restaurant, we work with local businesses to host the most creative dining experiences and redefine what a restaurant can be.

Anne Therese Gennari is a TEDx speaker, educator, and author of The Climate Optimist Handbook. As a workshop host and communicator, she focuses on shifting the narrative on climate change from one of fear to one of empowerment. The Climate Optimist was created to help people reconnect with their sense of purpose and possibility in the face of the climate crisis. The mission is to inspire action through hope: not by sugarcoating reality, but by encouraging us to face the truth with courage, compassion, and creativity.

Mend. is a fully sustainable, zero-waste spa guided by five pillars: body, mind, planet, spirit, and community. Founded by sisters Erika and Alex, the space was created with the belief that wellness thrives in connection with one another and the earth. The spa welcomes people from many paths to find balance, connection, and care through various healing practices and rituals.
