Due to the unhealthy air quality in San Jose, I am cancelling the “Trash Talk” event scheduled for tomorrow, November 16th at Zanotto’s. Our next “Trash Talk” will be December 7th at the same location.

The City of San Jose and Airbnb are working together to help our local community prepare for and respond to disasters like the wildfires that presently rage throughout California. You are invited to join us for an evening to learn about disaster preparedness, Airbnb's Open Homes program, and how you can support local community members during times of disaster.

There will be heavy appetizers, refreshments, and brief presentations about disaster preparedness strategies and the Open Homes program, so you can learn how to get involved.

When: Thursday, November 15th from 5:30-7:00PM
Where: Vietnamese Community Center (2072 Lucretia Ave | San Jose, CA 95122)

Guests are welcome. RSVP today! https://splashthat.com/sites/view/templateopenhomesmeetup115.splashthat.com
