Participating IHOP restaurants will give you a free short stack of pancakes to celebrate National Pancake Day. In exchange, you’re asked to donate to your local children’s hospital through Children’s Miracle Network.
You can’t get it to go (dine-in only) and there’s a limit of one order per customer. It’s been quite successful – they raised $625,000 last year and hope to raise close to $750,000 this year!

Artists Shana Berger and Nathan Purath will present Artists Build Community with Their Work, the latest installment of their Artist Forum series.
From the organization’s announcement:
The idea that art can take a direct role in making a just society inspires and informs Berger and Purath’s practice. In 2002, they co-founded the artists group, Your Art Here with fellow members Owen Mundy and Alyssa Hill. Their projects have addressed specific social needs by working directly with communities with the aim of realizing positive change. For the last three years, they have lived and worked in rural Alabama, facilitating community driven public art projects in the town of York, Alabama. Ultimately, they hope to empower artists and citizens in order to influence community creatively, change the way that art is made and viewed in contemporary society.
There will be a 30-minute presentation by the artists followed by an open discussion with the community about their work and other community-based art projects.

You’re not going to find a better panel than this one to talk about this important issue:
The OTM Democrats are inviting you to join them for a lively exchange on the current problems in our nation’s healthcare system and the various solutions being proposed to address them. They hope to
explore the disparity in access to healthcare in the U.S., HR676 (the bill before Congress to create a single payer healthcare system), the positions of the leading presidential candidates, and whether there is enough momentum and support in Congress, industry, and from citizens themselves to bring about meaningful reform.
