Set in the beautiful atmosphere of the Native Sons Hall, the Alchemy of Gathering will focus on creating an open space for community to come together and celebrate our connections - connections to each other, to ourselves and our community.
This gathering will host an array of different techniques and tools to help on the physical, mental and spiritual healing journey. Experience live sound healing performances, attend various wellness workshops, participate in the Interactive stations, have a reading or some energy work, and shop amongst various artisans and local businesses, and more.
The Alchemy of Gathering will begin with an opening ceremony to celebrate and honour the land and people, and also to set the intentions of the day. Throughout the day, there will be live music and sound healing performances in the Grand Hall near the Interactive Stations. These Interactive Stations will be for attendees to participate in different meditation techniques and a collaborative drawing. Also, in this space, Artisans, vendors, healers, readers and practitioners will have their products and services available. These products and services relate to wellness, creativity, healing, empowerment, self-care and community.
Downstairs in the Lodge room, wellness workshops will be running from 11am till 6pm. Details below.
Come join in on the Alchemy of Gathering to experience a time and space to gather and share ideas on wellness, connection, identity, creativity, healing and more. Let us come together to celebrate the community and love that is here NOW!
