Your Grandmother did it; your Aunties and Mothers did it. Now you’re continuing the tradition. The artistry and influence of culturally Black foods is unmistakable in the United States. The Black, Bold & Brilliant team is loosening our belt to discuss all things good in the hood this holiday season! The Salt Lake area has seen a delicious increase of Black food establishments across the valley, from brick and mortar restaurants to food trucks, and everything else in between. Kick back with us and feed your soul with this rousing roundtable discussion.

A Battle of Merlot & Cab

Join us for this battle royal of two classic red wines, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Funny thing, they are more friends than anything else, as they love to grow in the same climate, and blend well together. You’ll taste a single varietal Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and a Bordeaux-style blend, and receive a sampling of Beehive Cheese to pair.

This pairing includes three wines, a special arrival pour, and pairings sponsored by Beehive Cheese!

At STEM labs, we use scientific principles in creative new ways, and our special guest scientist Beth Drees will explain not just HOW to make slime, but WHY the whole thing works! Using this new chemical knowledge, kids are encouraged to create test batches of slime to explore their favorite textures by experimenting with different combinations of ingredients until they find the perfect recipe. Once their slime is just right, we’ll use ratios to create a mega-batch, add their favorite custom mix-ins, and package individual portions to hand out as special DIY valentine gifts for the whole class. Even grown ups will have fun engineering fascinating new goops with their kids, and at the end, everyone will walk away feeling like a chemical engineer.

This workshop will be held at the STEM Action Center’s Innovation Hub in Millcreek, where you can have all the fun of slime and leave the mess behind!

Please note: a parent or guardian must be in attendance with their child/children. The $29 ticket allows entry for one child and one parent. An additional $10 for entry of another child with that ticket.

At STEM labs, we use scientific principles in creative new ways, and this workshop will give you science-backed skills for working through mental health challenges and documenting your journey. We’ll begin the workshop by customizing personal journals with collage materials, offering a simple way to visualize your thoughts and moods. Then, Claire Adams of the Community Writing Center will offer an overview of what mental health journaling can do for you, guiding you through several prompts that will help you get started on your path to wellbeing.

This workshop is also a fundraiser, and 10% of ticket sales will be donated to the Behavioral Health Innovation & Dissemination Center at the University of Utah, where new breakthroughs in mental health treatment are always being studied. We’ll hold this workshop at the University of Utah’s NEXUS Facility, and detailed instructions on parking and location will be sent two days prior to the event to help you get there.
