TINY Talks: The Mind Mushroom Connection: Are Shrooms Good for Your Mental Health?

We're kicking off our fall series of TINY Talks with Avery Stempel of Collar City Mushrooms!

What's a TINY Talk? It's like a shorter TED Talk on topics from food to fashion and film, all held in restaurants and bars on quiet midweek nights. You come out to learn something new, the restaurants benefit from business + we help keep the costs down with some tiny cocktails + tiny tastes tailored to the topic. 

Join us on Weds. 9/16 for TINY Talks, TINY cocktails, TINY snacks from 6:30-8:30pm with the talk from 7 to 7:30pm. Guest speaker Avery Stempel’s TINY Talk on psilocybin + mental health will be in the garden room at the Lucas Confectionery, Troy. Stempel, owner of Collar City Mushrooms, is Co-President of New Yorkers for Mental Health Alternatives (NYMHA) working on legislation to legalize the medicinal use of psilocybin mushrooms.
If you’ve seen Oprah exploring its benefits, you know psilocybin for wellness has gone mainstream! Stempel breaks down the research, the practice + answers all your fungi questions. 

Tickets include your first TINY cocktail.

Ticket fees allow us to provide a travel stipend for our guest speakers, cover fees/event costs, + supports our Raise the Bar initiative for people who work in the hospitality industry. Read more at thedishing.com.
