HERE | Helping Each-other Re-member Earth

H•E•R•E: Helping Each-other Re-member Earth

We are HERE. HERE, together, in these bodies, on this earth. We are here with our joy, here with our pain, here with our passion, and here, to help each other re-member the earth we all belong to and are all made of. We welcome you to join us as we find our way back HERE.

HERE is an evening of spoken word, song, and tabling from local organizations centered around social and climate justice. Our intention for this event is to spark inspiration, connect people to ways to plug in, and build community around actively embodying our values.

Song, storytelling and poetry are ancient technologies of truth that have the power to weave us together in a tapestry of belonging. Join us in harnessing this energy to bring us back H•E•R•E.
