WTF is Happening?! Community Gathering

is a vibrant event bringing families, youth, and neighbors together through art, wellness, and civic engagement. This inclusive space celebrates where creativity and action intersect, featuring live music, poetry, interactive art installations, youth performances, wellness experiences such as yoga and Reiki, and opportunities to learn about your rights and get involved locally.

Together, we’ll be building a community “mosaic,” inspired by the poem from the Wick Poetry Center, a powerful reminder that each of us is unique but joined together in a greater whole. The themes of justice, connection, and collective strength in this poem guide the day’s energy and purpose.

Join us on September 21 at the Standing Rock Cultural Arts Center in Kent, OH, to connect with your community, express yourself, and help shape a more caring, engaged world. Whether you want to enjoy performances, explore hands-on art, join drum circles, or meet local vendors, WTF is Happening?! invites you to be part of something meaningful and inspiring.

Come curious, come open, and leave empowered, a vital piece of this growing mosaic.

Only so many tiles fit in the mosaic; make sure yours is included!This is a small, vibrant gathering, so space is limited.Reserve your spot now!
