Events

​This month's café is back at Last Mile Cafe on Hall St SE and once again in the later evening. This month's cafe will fall a week following the elections. There will be batch brew coffee provided, and you can purchase espresso drinks if you'd like.

​So, what is a climate café? It is "a simple, hospitable, empathetic space where [feelings] and uncertainties about our climate & ecological crisis can be safely expressed."

​A climate café is a nonjudgmental space open to every person ready to explore eco-emotions in a group setting and within a justice orientation. It is an advice-, debate-, and fixing-free zone, but rather a lightly peer-facilitated space to focus on feelings about current climate realities, and to create community around those feelings. There is no charge to participate.

​Climate Café Grand Rapids meets monthly. Contact: [email protected] or @climatecafegr on Instagram. (Do not worry if you do not see many signups on Luma. We promote events on several platforms, and we do not require RSVPs. There will be others there!)
