COMMUNITY
Gaia's Garden is a restaurant, a music and art venue, and a community center, a place to meet, chat, dream, chill, study, plan and - of course - eat! We're developing events that bring people together, such as "Spoken Word Nights," to include poetry, drama, dinners-with-authors and other types of presentations. If you have an idea you'd like to share with us, contact Ari at (707) 292-7492.
WOMEN IN BLACK
You see them every Friday, in the rain, in the heat, on the corner of Mendocino and College Avenues in Santa Rosa, witnessing for peace and justice. You will also see them most Fridays at Gaia's Garden, warming up with soup and bread. If you've wondered about them or just marveled, don't hesitate to stop by the table and say hello.
"This movement began in 1988 in Israel. Jewish women who opposed their own government's violence against Palestinians began standing on Fridays in public squares; some Palestinian women joined them. Later, the movement expanded to other countries. Women in Black was a nominee for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. In California alone, 25 cities and towns are listed on the group's website. We are joined by men in sympathy - who are committed to peace with justice. The world is in need of a strong witness for peace! We are not an organization, but a movement." Bev Ludwig
