Ybor City’s 7th + Grove Restaurant and Lounge and Health Matters Pharmacy are teaming up to host a Covid-19 vaccine pop-up for employees, customers, and community members in support of City of Tampa’s new “Tickets to Outside” campaign. The city started the initiative last month as a way to make the vaccine less scary for residents by using tickets to different attractions and events as incentives.

“It’s important to remove the common barriers of access that many people in our community face”, says Dr. Wright in a press release. “This pop-up clinic is our way of meeting our people where they are. VIBE + VACS is a pop-up clinic that will assist to answer any questions you have to keep your family safe and healthy.”

7th + Grove partners Dr. Vondalyn Wright and Dr. Jamaris Glenn join Erika Hall APRN-C with Advanced Mobile Medical and other area health care professionals to give out the vaccine. Got any questions? They’ll all be around providing education and answers for anything attendees want to know.

The first 100 on-site vaccinated guests get a free “Get Your Roll On” appetizer and all vaccinated guests are eligible for a grand prize drawing for a night out at 7th + Grove Lounge, courtesy of the restaurant. Small plates offered cost $7. If you haven’t been, their menu consists of other dishes like the “Welcome to Atlanta”, “Nolia Clap”, and “Kid Cudi Tacos”. Can’t make it to the Ybor City restaurant? Their Sparkman What location is not too far away.

“Vibe and Vacs” is tomorrow, June 9 from 3pm-7pm at 7th + Grove.
