WELCOME EVERYONE!
In our current constantly connected, but somehow completely disconnected society, my dream is to bring Common Ground to our community as a hub for anyone and everyone who needs a welcoming and comfortable place to be themselves, with the added bonus of good food and amazing hand crafted beverages. Common Ground will be a welcoming place for all members of the community, regardless of race, background, sexual orientation or lifestyle choice.
A bit about myself- my name is Adrienne Hulburt-Stroud, and I have been dreaming about this project for many years. I have always had a passion for organizing community events and bringing folks together who share the common goal of learning, exploring their creativity and growing their mind as well as their social circle through a variety of experiences & the amazing discussions that arise. I also have a deep rooted love for coffee & delicious food, and thusly the idea was born that these two passions should combine into one beautiful collaboration of happiness & deliciousness.
But this project is NOT all about me, of course. The whole point of this project is to provide a space for the whole community... a "Common House" if you will. So I have been working with many fine folks in our area who are interested in hosting events and getting involved in Common Ground once we launch. Some of the fun stuff we have in store are yoga events, a regular poetry slam, writers group, arts and crafts events, music, open mics and so much more! We are always looking for more community collaborators, so if you have an idea, feel free to contact us anytime. It can be a one time event, or even a regularly recurring event on our calendar if there is enough interest.
Have fun poking around our website, and feel free to email me with any ideas, comments, questions, winning lottery numbers or recipes for your great grandmother's famous borscht.
All ideas and feedback are welcome!
