DESCRIPTION:You are invited to HGP's annual holiday celebration, this year hosted at 
 the Resource Center for Nonviolence. We'll celebrate all of our trainees' 
 successes this year, with warm cider and a menu of delicious holiday treats 
 from Kin & Kitchen, followed by an engaging celebratory program. We're so 
 excited to screen the inspiring documentary, Mission: JOY and have a 
 discussion following the film with co-author of The Book of Joy, Douglas 
 Abrams.\n\nInspired by The Book of Joy, the film Mission: JOY brings us 
 inside the poignant and laughter-filled friendship of the Dalai Lama and 
 Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who have faced oppression, exile, death threats, 
 cancer, and more, yet come out the other side as two of the most joyful 
 human beings on the planet. Their life stories and practical wisdom remind 
 us that joy is an inside job, that joy and sorrow are inseparable, and that 
 one of joy’s secrets is deep connection with others—an insight deeply 
 connected to our work.\n\nFollowing the film, we are thrilled to present a 
 discussion with best-selling author Douglas Abrams. Doug is an author, 
 editor, literary agent, and truth hunter. Doug has worked with Stephen 
 Hawking on his last book, the global bestseller Brief Answers to the Big 
 Questions. Doug has had the privilege of working with other Nobel Laureates 
 including Nelson Mandela, Jody Williams, and Elizabeth Blackburn. He has 
 worked with many visionary scientists and is devoted to spreading the 
 importance of conservation and fighting climate change.\n\nEach holiday 
 season, we celebrate the work our trainees have accomplished on the farm, 
 as well as the profound transformations our trainees make and our 
 connection to the community! At HGP, the holidays evoke the cycle of the 
 seasons—each wreath at our Holiday Stores was made with seeds started in 
 the spring, tended during the summer, harvested in the fall, and crafted 
 into a beautiful arrangement.\n\nTimeline for the evening:\n\n6:15 - 
 7:00pm: Reception with treats from Kin & Kitchen\n7:00 - 8:30pm: Welcome, 
 Voice of Experience & Film Screening\n8:30 - 9:00pm: Discussion & 
 Conclusion\n\nWe'll feature some of HGP's latest value-added products made 
 by trainees in our transitional employment program so you can stock up on 
 holiday gifts.\n\nAs an indoor event in these times, when not actively 
 eating or drinking, we do encourage wearing masks.\n\nPlease contact 
 info@homelessgardenproject.org with any additional questions.\n
