Living Off the Row Open Mic Night Fundraiser
by xabiergranja on Feb.02, 2010, under Uncategorized
In addition to our usual potluck events, the HUB is hosting a special fundraiser for Ronald Kitchen and Marvin Reeves, two extraordinary men who spent over 20 years behind bars for a crime they did not commit. Mr. Kitchen was sentenced to be executed and Mr. Reeves received life. They were both tortured by the infamous Jon Burge and his henchmen to confess. After years of court hearings, grassroots activism and publicity of their cases, they are now free men. They are rebuilding their lives and integrating themselves back into society. They could use some help!
the HUB is hosting an open mic/jam session/dinner to help Ronald and Marvin get back on their feet. Recite your poetry or stories, bring your instruments and leave the cooking to us. We will provide dinner, beverages, and dessert.
$15 suggested donation for dinner. There will be a dessert table.

Hey guys,
To start with, happy 2010!! Now that I’m back from Spain I can update our blog again, woohoo!!
So, next event planned will be an open mic/jam session night. The idea is that whatever artistic skill you have, you bring it along with you. Whether it is musical, lyrical, writing, stories, poetry, slam pieces, whatever it is, we would like you to share it with us.
As usual, awesome food will be in our company. The date was originally planned for jan/30, but it seems we are all too busy for the date in the end, so it is being pushed back sometime in February. We will decide exact date/place in our next meeting and I’ll post the info here in our blog, so stay tuned!!

Thanksgiving Dinner – November 26th @ 4pm
by xabiergranja on Nov.10, 2009, under Events
Hey HUBsters!!
New event coming up!! We live in a big, biiiiiiiiig city, full of pissed off people who rarely say thanks. I think this is reason enough for us to try harder and give thanks, not only in general, but to ourselves too. We tend to do this with our KUDOS minutes in our meetings. Lets extend these to a full blown dinner together where we can enjoy our company and give thanks that we have each other in health, friendship and most importantly, in more difficult situations when we really need each other’s support.
Join us on the 26th for thanksgiving dinner, as usual bring your favorite dish to share with the rest of the HUBsters and family/friends. The event, as stated in this post’s title, starts at 4pm.
Hope to see you there,
txabi
