SBC Oakland loves good stories & Chapter 510 is helping youth share theirs. So for our Meetups @ Chapter 510 we will be fundraising! Book a “Reserved Cozy Seating” spot (see 🔗 ) w/ minimum donation to Chapter 510 & 📧 the screen📸 to silentbookcluboakland@gmail.com 4/4

Chapter 510 teaching artists and volunteers work side by side with educators to provide a safe space and supportive community so Black, brown, and queer youth ages 8-19 can bravely write. Their vision is that they want every young person in Oakland to write with confidence and joy. See a trend 😉 3/4

What is so exciting about @silentbookclub.bsky.social Oakland and Chapter 510 though, Eleana? I’m so happy you asked! SBC Oakland is a beautiful “Introvert Happy Hour,” we bring our books and silently read together. Chapter 510 is a made-in-Oakland youth writing, bookmaking & publishing center. 2/4

While we are at it, I am also trying to put together an Immunoengineering Starter Pack, but we don't have enough folks yet to create it. If you're an engineer working on immune-related topics, reach out to me and let me know so we can all find one another.

Hi, me please! I just got here 👋 I missed all the science discourse!
