About this Event
The Plummet Summit now in Year 2, invites participants to embrace the fall. Every fall is a step towards growth. Through collaborative creation and wellness modules, participants will explore Shadowpath opportunities as apprentices, performers, volunteers, audience members or imagine bold new ways to contribute to our movement for holistic, cultural change.
Hosted at the Varley Art Gallery in Unionville, this un-conference catalyzes new paths for a more creative York Region.
