Blue Monday is an annual day that is often regarded as the most depressing day of the year. It typically falls on the third Monday in January and is associated with feelings of sadness, low motivation, and a lack of energy.*

---------------

The Most Depressing Day of the Year falls on a Monday, so we throw a party the day before to help cheer everyone up and get through it together.
More event details to come, but we'll have live music, comfort food and a short themed round of trivia with special cheery prizes.
