Step away from the everyday and gather around the table for Trails, Tales & Tastes: A Luncheon with Rue Mapp.
This special afternoon brings together food, conversation, and storytelling with Rue Mapp, founder of the national organization Outdoor Afro and a leading voice in expanding connections to nature and the outdoors.

The conversation will explore themes of belonging, exploration, and the power of storytelling to inspire new paths.
