purplerabbitYou are invited to a Salon hosted by Rabbit Warren. The Rabbit Warren Salon is a potluck social and special events night held every third Sunday evening each month at our roomy home in Hayward. This Sunday, November 20th will be our next Salon.
The next Salon will be January 15th. And the topic will be: "Life, Death and Ethics." When does life begin? When is it acceptable to take a life? Is it appropriate to end your own life? Does the state have the right to take a life? Discussion on ethics and politics of abortion, war, suicide, death penalty etc.
"The salon is a 17th century French idea, a gathering of stimulating and attractive people of quality under the roof of an inspiring hostess, partly to amuse one another and partly to refine their taste and increase their knowledge through conversation and readings, consciously following Horace's definition of the aims of poetry, 'to please and educate' (aut delectare aut prodesse est)."
People may show up at 6:30 if they like, dinner starts at 7. There discussion until 9 and possibly socializing until 11. We welcome and encourage people regardless of sex, gender, race, sexual orientation, age, class, disability, size, tradition, etc. If you have a disability and would need accommodation, please contact us so we can make sure things are comfortable for you.
To participate in the potluck, you will need to bring:
1) A dish of food and/or drink to share. We ask you put a note with the food detailing ingredients for those with food restrictions. (If you buy it, bring the label.) Meats are okay, but please clearly mark it for those who prefer not. Please keep in mind that these events will be drug and alcohol free.
2) A plate and flatware set to eat from. This is so we don't use up a lot of disposable paper products or have to do a lot of dishes.
3) Donation requested $2-5 each. No one turned away for lack of funds.
Please RSVP if possible. We like to know how many people to expect.
If you have not been to the Rabbit Warren before, please email us and we will send you directions.
