Friends,
We have a big bummer of an update. ?

Yesterday we were notified that our venue had accidentally double booked us, and we haven't been able to find a suitable backup venue with such short notice. We'll be taking our standard summer break, so we will miss seeing your faces until we return in August! ☀️

All tickets already purchased will be refunded in full. We appreciate your understanding, and we can't wait to see you all again at August First Friday! ?
