This is the room where it happens 💡

hosts the Northeast’s largest innovation event, Yale Innovation Summit. It brings together some of world’s brightest minds two days of inspiration, investment, and impact.

More than a conference, the Summit is a launchpad for revolutionary ideas. With 60+ sessions across six tracks of programming—arts, biotech, civic, climate, health, and tech—attendees explore the frontiers of innovation shaping our world.

I had a great time connecting as both a creator and educator with peers and professionals alike. If you get an opportunity to attend this gathering…take it!

INFO ABOUT THE SHOW - https://bushnell.org/shows-concerts/water-for-elephants

”After losing what matters most, a young man jumps a moving train unsure of where the road will take him and finds a new home with the remarkable crew of a traveling circus, and a life—and love—beyond his wildest dreams. Seen through the eyes of his older self, his adventure becomes a poignant reminder that if you choose the ride, life can begin again at any age.

Tony Award-nominated director Jessica Stone’s “huge, heart-filling” production (The New York Times) features a book by three-time Tony nominee Rick Elice adapted from Sara Gruen’s novel, and a soaring score by the acclaimed PigPen Theatre Co.

Dinner and dessert made for all in Southington 🤤

First off is . They’re cooking up northern Pakistani food and Community. This wonderful couple focused on feeding Southington during Covid and are now back as a fast casual establishment.

This accommodating spot was made from the couples own experience of having difficulty finding halal friendly places. They make their spot open to all with things like a gluten-free fryer, nuts that stay out of the kitchen, and vegan options.

This was a young Side Disher favorite date spot between our two towns in the state. You can order a quick meal or stay a while in the brightly decorated space. You can even buy some spices or donate to feed someone in need with their community fund.

Next stop is , which is here to prove that you don’t need gluten or nuts to be a magical dessert. The treats did not play. Pop tart bars, loaded salty sweet sundaes, and even freezer treats to take home. Make sure to read all the signs while you’re there for a good giggle.

So if you’ve been looking for accommodating to all spots, these two need to be on your list. Make sure to follow the Side Dishers for more fun.
