discover the secrets of san jose 

We are fortunate to have local writer Cassie Kifer, author of Secret San Jose: A Guide to the Weird, Wonderful, and Obscure as our Lunch & Learn guest speaker today. 

Her unconventional guidebook takes you through bizarre and fascinating stories that define San Jose's history. Player pianos, disappearing lakes, ghost towns, buried limbs, a scientific landmark in San Jose that moonlights as a mausoleum, sacred street-food that will bring you closer to enlightenment - these are just a few stories you might not know about Northern California's biggest city.

Whether you are a life-long San Jose area resident, new transplant, or first-time visitor, come join us and learn about all the quirky and beautiful places our city has to offer.
