Imani means faith...”to believe with all our heart in our people, our parents, our teachers, our leaders and the righteousness and victory of our struggle.” This weekend, following the final day of Kwanzaa, we have taken the chance to reflect on our community and the faith we have in our mission to bring people together. You are our people. You are our teachers and leaders. We appreciate you and cannot wait to walk together into a New Year with new possibilities for togetherness. We also have faith in the unity and healing of this place we call home 🌍

Our Farewell 2020 show won’t be complete without a perspective from the medical field. If you’re a healthcare worker with a story to tell about the past year, we’d love to hear it. Click the link in our bio to submit your story. The Farewell 2020 show will take place Friday, December 11th at 7 p.m. At the Yarn, our audience and storytellers are our most important priority. Therefore, to maintain safety and practice social distancing during COVID-19, the performance will be recorded live and shared virtually.

2020 has changed the fabric of our society, transforming our interactions with family and friends, our access to healthcare and education, our idea of a “night on the town,” and our dependence on a certain video calling platform. This year has redefined our preconceived notions of essential work. It has stretched our creativity as work life and home life collide. It has uncovered a new perspective of disparities that have long existed. Join us for a free virtual show December 12th at 7 p.m. as we kiss 2020 goodbye... or kick it to the curb.
