Registration is required. \n \nWhy we’re celebratingA year ago\, Bloom started with a simple idea: belonging isn’t something you arrive at; it’s something a community builds together\, one small moment at a time. A conversation over coffee. A hike with new people. A word learned in someone else’s language. A year in\, those moments have turned into real friendships\, real confidence\, and a community that keeps showing up for each other. \nThis event is our way of saying thank you to everyone who showed up to a first Bloom activity not knowing a single person\, to the facilitators and volunteers who made it feel easy\, and to the partners who believed in Bloom before it had a year of stories to point to. \nAnd it’s just the beginning of what’s next. Stick around at our sign-up station for early access to the fall Bloom calendar. The next chapter starts in September. \n \n🎟️ Bloom Bingo: Grab a bingo card at check-in\, complete it by trying activities around the event\, and submit it for a chance to win.
