The 580 CommUnity

There are many ways to nourish your head, heart, and spirit at 580 Café. Lively discussions both informally around coffee and food, or more focused on small group and justice activities- there's always something to talk about, and someone to listen or listen to.  At 580 Cafe we believe that community is a basic need to flourish and grow.
