"Build the Contemplarium" Workshop @ The Commons SF [public]
The SF Contemplarium is envisioning creating secular sacred space in San Francisco to honor our human journey, through hosting programming and through building physical spaces and structures. (Read more about the vision in this short manifesto and the longer vision.)
Curious to chat more about the SF Contemplarium? Excited to explore possibilities or getting involved? Join this workshop to explore the SF Contemplarium vision, brainstorm possibilities, and commit to next steps.
This session will be hosted at The Commons SF, a fourth place dedicated to meaning-making, personal growth, and self-expression in SF. Can’t wait to join brains in this visionary space.
