BIG, BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND in MORRO BAY

Q. Are you a crafting or game-playing fiend?

Q. Do you like the idea of learning to bellydance?

Q. Do you enjoy hanging out with other fat or fat-allied folks?

Q. Do you like the beach, size-positive workshops, pamper time, and intelligent discussions about the future of fat rights?

Q. Does Morro Bay sound like a decent place to hang for a weekend?

If any of the above strike home, we’re convinced you will have a blast with us at our Big, Beautiful Weekend!
