The Local First Coffee Hour events are a casual opportunity to connect with member businesses, hear about our upcoming programs, and learn how to build an economy that puts people first. We host them monthly with the support of Bloom Credit Union.

Host highlight: Cocoon Art Space, the artful, cozy, wondrous place, is a working a contemporary art gallery and retail shop that offers shoppers access to local art, distinctive artisan goods, and specialty art supplies!

Safety expectations: We’d like to continue meeting monthly, in-person for our Coffee Hour events. To safely do so, event attendees are expected to adhere to current CDC recommendations. Masks are optional and we have developed a sticker system to identify attendees’ comfort levels. Changes to this protocol will be made when/if necessary.

We hope you’ll join us for good coffee and good conversation!
