About this Event
Heart Space is a healing circle that provides a space for Black folks to decompress and connect. BEAM is working in partnership and collaboration with community leaders from Pasadena/Altadena to bring Heart Space to folks needing to process the aftermath of the recent wildfires. We're holding space for collective healing and answering the call to show up by offering resources rooted in care, connection, and restoration. Come to connect, mediate, learn, share. If you or someone you know is a community member to the historical Pasadena/Altadena, we invite you and look forward to being in community with you. All are welcome and we are centering Pasadena/Altadena folks.
Location: Heart Space will take place at the Center for Restorative Justice, which is located at First Baptist Church Pasadena (75 N. Marengo Ave, Pasadena, CA 91101).
*Accessibility Statement: ASL services are available, must be indicated by Tuesday, August 12, 2025. Please email [email protected]
About the venue: The Center for Restorative Justice was founded in the summer of 2016 and was birthed during the tumultuous summer that saw a rise in racial violence in the United States. From the onset, the aim of The Center was to create a soft place for hard conversations. It quickly became a sanctuary where individuals, congregants, and the broader community could delve into the multifaceted and destructive narratives of race and racism within the American context with the hope of authentic reconciliation. These conversations were enriched and guided by scripture and spiritual practices.
Parking: If you’re driving, we invite you to park at 150 E Holly St and bring in your ticket with you for validation. We are also a block away from the Memorial Park Station on the A Line. You will enter the building through a side door on Union St. and then a team member will direct you towards our office on the 3rd floor (accessible by stairs or elevator).
