COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

We will meet for a short gathering ritual, conversation and refreshments, and an opportunity to acknowledge the hard and challenging parts of 2022. We invite you consider the losses of the last year, death and non-death, and to give communal voice to those losses by hanging a loss-note on our sorrow trees. Our sorrow trees will remain standing inside the front entrance to Elevation Place throughout the week of January 16-21 and you are welcome to stop in at any time to write on a note and hang it on a tree.
