Abby Powell - Sunday Services and Events Coordinator 

California has always been my home; Chico and the Central Valley for the early years, L.A. for the last twenty-ish. There's so much off-trail beauty and goodness here, and helping support community life behind the scenes is one way of experiencing that up close. My role at bread involves a little of this and a little of that: admin, volunteer training, and hopefully this year, adding more art and recreation to the event calendar. Can’t wait to meet you and learn what you love most about the place(s) you call home. 

For fun, I enjoy bird peeping near the L.A. River, doing mixed media illustration, and playing chase with my cat, Dr. Eleanor Arroway. 

Likes:

stone fruit / the smell of chlorine / California’s chaparral and coast redwoods / these gum tree flowers which remind me of Beaker from The Muppets / movie theaters with galactic squiggles-n-confetti carpeting

Dislikes:

skywriting / peanut brittle / the sound of the air brakes on a city bus / an always damp bath mat / gas pump tv
