Depressed Cake Shop Los Angeles Pop-Up

DCS November 17, 2015

An evening of stories, music, poetry and CAKE
This Is My Brave, Inc. and Depressed Cake Shop are proud to present an evening of storytelling and cake.

Ten of the 35 incredible writers from Amy Ferris’ new book, Shades of Blue will participate in This Is My Brave’s first Los Angeles production by sharing stories that are life affirming, funny, poignant and personal. The evening will include musical performances by Stephen Bishop, Jimmy Camp, Julie Silver, and Shannon Curtis.

Praise for Shades of Blue:

“Thirty-five brilliant, vivid, edgy writers in Amy Ferris’s compelling new book, Shades of Blue, unflinchingly shout out the real true down-dirty story of the blues. These compelling tales of depression aren’t depressing—they are emblazoned with hope—because every person in this book is a survivor. I have no doubt whatsoever that Shades of Blue will save lives—maybe even yours.”
—Laura Davis, bestselling author of I Thought We’d Never Speak Again, co-author of The Courage To Heal, and founder of The Writer’s Journey

The Depressed Cake Shop’s stunning gray baked confections which will be on sale after the show with proceeds benefitting This Is My Brave.

Doors open at 7pm with a champagne toast as guests arrive.

Show begins promptly at 8pm, followed by a book signing and cake reception in the lobby.

This is one mental health event you won’t want to miss!

When: Thursday, November 19th, 2015 from 7-9:30 PM (PST)

Where: Harmony Gold Theater (7655 Sunset Blvd.)
