**One of our favorite bands in playing this Friday. Tell them at the gate you are there for the band and they will direct you to the terrace bistro.** **The concert is inside and air conditioned!!!!**

Come and meet other Neurodivergent and nature loving folk at Goat'N Around Farm. I'll kick us off with a welcome warm-up and topic to explore and then it'll be a warm, welcome and goatly goofy time. Meet new people; see how everyone deals with the ups and down of being in the 6% (of neurodivergent people in comparison to neurotypicals); cuddle cute goats and if there's enough interest, we'll take the goats for a little hike in the adjacent woods. Please come wearing closed-toed shoes and clothing you don't mind potentially being nibbled on by goats. You're welcome to bring water/sodas and either personal snacks or some to share. If weather isn't great - - we do have a small, cozy indoor space to gather. i look forward to meeting you all and growing my neurodiverse community.

**Maybe you’re looking for an alternative to celebrating our country’s 250th birthday at donnie’s rally to end democracy? If so, then I suggest a night of exile to the Republic of Takoma Park to see the funkiest band around - 🐈KatBootyJuice!** [KatBootyVibe (YouTube)](YouTube) **Nothing better than having a few drinks at your favorite poorly air conditioned dive bar and getting hot and sweaty on the dance floor with friends and strange-ones.** **KatBootyJuice is led by the enigmatic funkmeister, Jimmy Gold, and his five string bass with his groove masters playing funky favorites from the 70s to the 90s.** **VFW Post 350 (Hell’s Bottom) is a fav hangout with cheap drinks, friendly irregulars, live music 6 nights a week, and a decent dance floor. The Henry Sisters food truck has a tasty menu of offerings. There’s a parking lot or nearby street parking.** **Catch me at the bar or the dance 💃🏽🕺🏻floor**

So many ladies in our community are currently navigating romantic transitions, heartbreaks, endings, disappointments, or emotional resets. Instead of isolating through it, I thought it might be beautiful to create space to process it together. Join us for an evening of good food, music, conversation, and supportive community with women who understand how heavy these seasons can feel. This won’t be a sad “sit in silence” kind of gathering think warmth, honesty, laughter, reflection, and reminding ourselves that endings can also be beginnings. We’ll likely include: ✨ journaling + reflection prompts ✨ symbolic release/letting go activities ✨ comforting food & drinks ✨ music and soft vibes ✨ and maybe even a piñata for dramatic effect because healing can be playful too You do not need to share your story if you don’t want to. Come exactly as you are. Sometimes community is the medicine.
