Summer Social for Korean adoptees – AK Connection

AK Connection, a Twin Cities based organization of adult Korean adoptees, will hold its Summer Social on June 20 (5 to 8 p.m.) at Arbeiter Brewing in Minneapolis.

Registration is required for this (21-plus) event, and all adoptees (domestic and intercountry) are invited along with their guests.

A suggested donation is $5, to cover food costs and to support the organization. Registration is required at the link below. 

The suggested donation is $5 to help cover food costs and support AK Connection. Appetizers will be served,  and additional food will be available for purchase from Arbeiter.

Earlier in the day, Dr. Kim Park Nelson, a fellow Korean adoptee and researcher, will host a screening of the film Joy Ride as part of the Screening Adoption: Adoption Film Series and Adoptee Audience Research  project. The film screening will be from 2:30 to 5 p.m. at the Hosmer Library, Room L02 (347 E 36th St., Minneapolis)

Attendees will have the option—but never the obligation—to complete a brief, anonymous survey about the film’s adoption content.

AK Connection, a non-profit organization, provides ongoing social, cultural, and educational programming throughout the year. Events are posted on a Facebook page at this link.  The general website is at this link.
