Madison, something this way comes...
I've been tending bar for decades. I've poured thousands of drinks and heard twice as many stories. Now, I want to create something different....
The Intoxicologist's Table (https://www.bartender608.com/upcoming-events) inaugural series begins March 26th, and I'm inviting you to be part of the first one, gratis!
Here's how it's going to go down that Thursday:
✨The Literary Table | Women Writers & Their Legendary Libations (March = Women's History month)!
✨ 30 people (that's it, that's all)
✨ 3 cocktails honoring women writers (Let's start with Zadie Smith, Angela Carter, & Maya Angelou, shall we?)
✨ 75-90 minutes
✨ Each cocktail presented with BOTH alcoholic and non-alcoholic versions; you're welcome to try one type or both
✨ Attendees can listen AND SHARE cultural stories, experiences, grievances, poems, cocktail recipes, and thoughtful conversation
Here's what it is NOT:
❌ Not a bar crawl
❌ Not a happy hour
❌ Not a lecture
This is a salon-style gathering where craft, culture, and community can come together. Because after 30 years in this business, I know hospitality is about making people feel seen, valued, and connected.
Thursday, March 26th at 6:30 PM
FREE/GRATIS (inaugural event only)!
