Community Nights at Happy Hippie Customs
Happy Hippie Customs hosts ongoing community nights centered around connection, creativity, and nonprofit support. From Plant Bingo benefiting local causes, to Open Table Tuesday as a weekly space where anyone can share a meal and time together, to partnerships with Lake County Pride creating safe and welcoming gatherings, these events reflect our commitment to community care. Candy Bar Bingo next month continues that work through playful fundraising for animal welfare.
