FEATURING 

🍷 Pop-up natural wine bar by Rebel Rebel

Rebel Rebel is a “no-rules natural wine bar” located in Bow Market in Somerville. Owner and sommelier Lauren Friel opened Rebel Rebel in 2018 with the goal of creating a space where people can engage, grow, and build community around natural wine. Lauren and the team lean into their relationships with small winemakers, importers and distributors to celebrate and uplift diverse purveyors. The small team, made up entirely of women, nonbinary and queer folks, have also become known for their impactful activist initiatives such as “Rosé for Resistance.”

🎷 Music from Tim Hall

His poetry draws inspiration from his lived experiences - charting the nuances of blackness, masculinity, and the beauties of life. Tim is also co-owner of Cambridge-based HipStory, faculty at Berklee College of Music, a member of the award-winning band STL GLD, and a principal collaborator with Cliff Notez, Oompa, and Will Dailey.
