Grief Is A Portal

This interactive gathering is an invitation to slow down and be witnessed as we move through grief and life after loss, not to fix or rush the process, but to honor it. Through live music, vocal healing, ancestral remembrance, and guided sound journeys, we’ll create space to feel, release, and reconnect.

Ideal for anyone moving through personal or collective grief, processing loss (of a loved one, identity, home, or phase of life), or seeking space to slow down, reflect, and heal in a compassionate, embodied way. This gathering welcomes those who feel deeply, value ritual, and are drawn to community-based, somatic, or ancestral healing practices.

We walk. We rest. We listen. We remember.

What to Bring:

• Blanket, pillow, or cushion to sit on
• Special altar offerings (photos of loved ones, offerings like flowers, candles, or letters)
• Journal & something to write with
• Good walking shoes (suitable for the woods)
• Snacks or food if not purchasing lunch
• Water/hydration

Optional Lunch: ~$25 (via Kitava – pre-order required)

5 Work-trade spots available: half off ticket price in exchange for helping with setup or cleanup. Email [email protected] for inquiries.
