Stop by the San Jose Peace and Justice Center on Saturday, June 10th from 12-2:30PM for free food, live music, dance and comedic performances, a jewelry vendor, an organizational table booth for mental health resources, and interactive workshop activities centered on cultural appreciation vs. appropriation.

This will be a great way to start off the summer and the weekend but relaxing on our multi-colored carpets, eating good food, watching great performances and connecting with your loved ones!
