We're excited to announce a new monthly event to The Exchange: Lit Nite, presented by Kaleidoscope and facilitated by John and Christine Walker.

Kaleidoscope brings together curious people and thoughtful teachers to explore ideas in ways that feel human, engaging, and alive. Learning that's social, creative and feels like a night out. It's part seminar, part salon, part theatrical experience and entirely engaging.

Every 4th Thursday of the month will have a different theme to explore and April will kick the series off with THE HORROR STORY. We'll be tracing horror's evolution from cautionary tales to contemporary Cosmic Horror and Afrofuturism.

Don't miss out on the maiden voyage, April 23rd from 6-8PM at The Exchange. Let's get back to having great conversations face to face!
