Each unique beverage is paired with a curiosity sparking presentation by Breakdown contributor Louis Vassar Semanchik and Phoebe Blue in this hands-on workshop. All materials provided.

Louis Vassar Semanchik is a mushroom grower and educator based in NYC. He currently performs crop and product R&D for Smallhold, a national mushroom company, and hosts mushroom cultivation workshops at the community biolab Biotech Without Borders and community gardens across the city.

Phoebe Blue is a quirky antifolk beatnik of sorts who gets involved in creative projects like this from time to time. Other times, she’s hosting open mic, bartending at The Coupe of hanging with her cat Lala. You might spot her in the wilds of Staten Island walking aimfully.
