Founded by Kristen Domke, Gem City SoberBar was created as an alcohol-free alternative for those in recovery or simply looking for other ways to interact with their community without the involvement of spirits.

There will be a giving table set up for those who either want to bring in any gifts or items that they’d like to give away or, on the flip side, for those who may have not received any gifts for Christmas this year. Only one gift can be taken per person. Any gifts left over from the event will be donated.

A variety of mocktails will be available for purchase. Everyone in attendance is encouraged to write down their 2019 accomplishments and dreams for 2020 on a sticky note and add it to the sticky note wall.

The event runs from 6-10 p.m.
