Building the Kitchen Commons: Community Kitchen Meal & Visioning

Tuesday, June 21 · 6:30pm - 8:30pm Redeemer Lutheran Church
5431 NE 20th Ave at Killingsworth

What are community kitchens? How can they be used to reduce hunger, improve health, create jobs, and strengthen community ties? What would it take to turn a kitchen in your congregation or neighborhood into a community kitchen?

We’ll share a meal together and learn from leaders in Portland who are working to open kitchens for uses like cooking classes, cooking and preserving together, nurturing new food entrepreneurs, and more. Bring your appetite (dinner provided!) and ideas for a project in your organization or neighborhood!

RSVP appreciated by 6/20: [email protected]

correction: portland premier of Quien Dijo Miedo

Popcorn provided!

On June 28, 2009 the people of Honduras faced a rude awakening. Army
generals had forced elected President Manuel Zelaya onto a waiting plane and
whisked him away to Costa Rica. A military coup was underway. That’s when
Katia Lara picked up her camera and began filming. “Quien dijo miedo” covers
what the mainstream media didn’t: the story of how everyday Hondurans
organized to restore democracy in the absence of the rule of law.
