Bodega Market Activations
Bodega Market at Cesar Chavez Plaza is more than a market, we host weekly activities that fit perfectly into your lunch hour. Partake in book club, instructor-led stretching, and an organized donation drop off point.
Bodega Book Club
Once a month take part in our book club where we will read books that explore human connections, personal journeys, and family relationships with depth and sensitivity. Additionally, every week enjoy a cozy reading space within the park to eat lunch and have some time to wander into another world.
