Events Calendar
Monthly Family Meditation meets on the last Sunday of the month (unless otherwise noted in the schedule). Sessions begin with a short meditation and Dharma teaching and discussion, and activities that align with the day's theme, such as interactive storytelling, creative movement, and crafts. After each session, families are invited to stay for “snacky foods” and social time (bring something to share if you’re able).
