✨ a hilarious stand-up routine
✨ a spicy story from your past
✨ a wild dream journal entry
✨ a heartfelt poem or personal tale
✨ or whatever you’ve been meaning to say out loud
🎤 Special Guest Author at Gather! 📚
We're thrilled to welcome bestselling Canadian author and journalist Elizabeth Renzetti! She is the author of five books, most recently the national bestseller What She Said: Conversations About Equality. Liz will be performing at this edition of Gather, a moment you won’t want to miss! ❄️✨
