 Subject: [Awaken Café] The Awaken Café Greetings Coffee Connoisseurs, Artists, Activists, Friends, Family and Committed Community Members! You are receiving this newsletter because at some point you expressed interest in the Awaken Café (formerly known as the Buffalo Joy Park Project). The Awaken Café is a new specialty coffee cafe, beer/wine bar, gallery space, and performance venue coming to downtown Oakland in 2007. The Awaken Café’s Mission is: "Awaken Café serves world-class coffee and tea. We offer simple yet creative food from local and organic sources in addition to organic beer and wine. Our business practices and facilities are ecologically sustainable and certified green. We feature and support a thriving arts scene, as a venue for revolutionary performance and gallery art. We emphasize a sense of community in all areas of our operations. Our welcoming staff and highly skilled baristas embody who we are and what we do. We welcome community members to play an active role in co-creating the Awaken Café experience." It has been some time since our last e-mail update and there have been many new developments, including this newsletter system. We consolidated several older mailing lists from the different stages of this project into this new system. In doing so, we may have included people who had opted out of earlier lists. If we made a mistake by including you, please use the link at the bottom of this email to unsubscribe yourself. We will be sending out two additional emails today, with the following subject lines: (1) What’s New at the Awaken Café We wish you joy and bliss during this season of gratitude and family! We are deeply grateful to have you as a part of our community and honor your support, input, and participation in this exciting endeavor! Peace and Blessings! Cortt Dunlap & Kari Christensen |
