The Things We Carry

We all carry something.

Ideas. Responsibilities. Expectations. Dreams. Old stories. New possibilities. And sometimes, things we’ve been carrying far longer than we realize.

For October’s Latte Learning, we’re stepping inside the historic George West Mansion, home of the man once known as the “Paper Bag King,” for an experience inspired by the history of one of the simplest everyday objects: the paper bag.

But this isn’t really about bags. It’s about what’s inside yours.

Together, we’ll explore what we’re carrying into this next season, what still deserves space, what may be weighing us down, and what we’re ready to make room for next — all while enjoying lattes, tea, conversation, history, and the kind of networking that doesn’t feel like networking.
