Event Overview

Portals in Time: A semiannual gathering to draw inspiration from the solstice and create space for a guided personal journey into what was, what is, and what will be.

As metaphorical portals or thesholds, they serve as opportune moments to reflect on what was, ground in what is, and shift our gaze to what may be. This semiannual gathering is intended to create a space to cultivate presence, clarity and intentionality as we transition into another phase of life, in community.
