Every time I go to XCHC there are constants and also brand new, transient offerings and experiences. The constants include incredible coffee and food (plenty of vegan options for plant-y folks), welcoming and inspiring atmosphere, free WiFi and encouragement of hanging and working on creative projects; artist studios where one can see art being made before them. The transient experiences and offerings I have witnessed include art exhibitions, markets, pot luck lunches and dinners, nuns listening to disco music and serving mimosas/pancakes, think-tanks, live experimental immersive theatre, quadraphonic psychedelic Beatles Gigs, black light Parties, a John Rowles impersonator, multi zone intentional nightlife events, a music video premiere, 3D projection mapping, DJing lessons, people with fish costumes, a crypto treasure hunt, a platter-making competition, stand up comedy, fireside philosophy chats, charity fundraisers, acro yoga. The walls and layout are also constantly changing - the place is basically a living organism - a true melting pot and art accelerator. When you arrive it may be chill cafe vibes, but if you check the blackboard you'll see a wide variety of planned events and shenanigans. So feel free to introduce yourself, the residents will welcome you. You may even want to plan something there yourself.
