About this Event
*General Walk - no registration required*
Description: Join us for the 15th annual World Labyrinth Day celebrations to learn about this ancient tradition and walk the labyrinth accompanied by live musicians! The labyrinth at St. Paul's is a reproduction of the most famous labyrinth in the world at the Chartres cathedral in France and is usually only open on Sundays from 10am to noon so this is a great opportunity to check it out if you've never been!
This a one stop walk! Walkers will first meet our Labyrinth Keeper Sally to learn a little bit about this ancient meditative tradition then will walk the labyrinth accompanied by live musicians. Walkers can show up anytime between 1230pm and 3pm.
**We'll be open from 1230pm to 3pm so drop by anytime in that window - it will take you 30-45 minutes to meet our Labyrinth Keeper Sally and walk the labyrinth, depending on your pace.**
