Hope Café

So much is happening in our country and the world right now that it is heartbreaking. Everything feels less stable and less safe. It’s hard to listen to the news without dissolving into a pool of anxiety. Harder still to find moments of joy or grace.

I-House wants to change that. So we’ve invited artist Jesikah Maria Ross to dream up another interactive, art-filled gathering that brings folks together to play, share stories, and lift each other up. It’s called Hope Café. She piloted the event last year, and we think our community could use another one right about now.

At Hope Café, you’ll get some time away from the news cycle and instead experience:

Local artists jazzing up the space with music and poetry
Lighthearted activities that spark curiosity and delight
Conversations that build connection in creative, human ways
All of it unfolds in a warm, welcoming space – complete with snacks! You’ll leave feeling recharged and inspired.

So if you are looking to step out of the doom-loop we seem to be living in, lean into some self-care or just want to make new friends, then join us for Hope Café.
