“When enough people move together in a common pulse with a common purpose, an amazing force takes over-a power that can renew, inspire, teach, and heal” ~ Anna Halprin
Join us on May 14, 2023 from 9-11AM PDT for this annual community ritual, led by Dohee Lee, dedicated to healing and peace on Mother Earth among family, community, and in the world. We would like to invite participants to name someone in their family, a country connected with their lineage, and Nature that needs healing. Please prepare by bringing in a personal focus in advance through creating a drawing and thinking of your intention.
In appreciation of our work and this generous offering by healing artist Dohee Lee, we are asking for a contribution to the Anna Halprin/Tamalpa ArtCorps Scholarship Fund. Suggested donation – $20-$100. Please donate HERE.
