Join us for a transformative evening with special guest Joanna Macy; Active Hope will nourish our courage and creativity for the Great Turning;The epochal transition to a life-sustaining society & the essential adventure of our time.
Drawing from her latest book, Active Hope, co-authored with Chris Johnstone of the UK, Joanna will share stories and practices that make us glad to be alive right now
in this amazing and perilous world.
Active Hope is about finding, and offering, our best response to the crisis of sustainability unfolding in our world. It offers tools that help us face the mess we’re in, as well as find and play our role in the collective transition, or Great Turning, to a life-sustaining society.
Special musical guests:
Healing Music with Debbie Danbrook & Chris Gartner

If you're deeply concerned about issues of social justice and the environment and, like me, from time to time feel utterly overwhelmed with it all . . . if you wonder how to weave an authentic spirituality (love) with your politics (justice) - I can't recommend check out this beautiful event enough.
It's being led by one of the changemakers in this world whom I most deeply respect. she's not a big name that would be known by your average person - but her work is so deeply respected by so so many.
She's an invisible giant of our era. the chance to work with her is an impossible privilege.
Trust me on this.
