We're so excited to have Sonalee Rashatwar with us here in Minneapolis for this workshop! Unlearning Fatphobia with Sonalee with focus on deconstructing diet culture, understanding racism, and body image.
>> This event is sold out! << (Our shop will remain open during this event but we are only buying NOON - 4PM.)
Space Information: This event will actually take place two doors down from our shop. The doorway is rather narrow (35 inches) with a very small lip that may cause problems for those in wheelchairs. (Please note that the only restroom available for this event is inside of Cake.) We will have a mixture of seating options including many high capacity folding chairs. Please get in touch in advance with any accessibility considerations.
