Through her passion for storytelling and culinary cooking, Ferene Paris Meyer (owner of All Heart Inspirations), provides a heartfelt experience anchored in love, nourishment, and connection. Feed Your Soul features a storytelling performance by Ferene paired with a three-course menu inspired by her Haitian culture. Tickets include two drink tickets per person. This intimate event is hosted at August First bakery each month.  

Ferene has been a faculty artist with the Flynn since 2019 teaching "I’m My Ancestor’s Wildest Dreams: Voices of Color Through Storytelling". Ferene started this class in collaboration with the Flynn, creating space for BIPOC voices to be heard, find connection, and feel a sense of belonging through shared narratives. We look forward to guests having a glimpse into how it feels to be in a storytelling class with Ferene.
