The net result of our 3 part 'Sharing the Sacred' gatherings - beautiful pieces filled with intention and created from powerfully vulnerable stories and materials that called out to us in the Milky Way.

Thank you to everyone who came out yesterday and dared to share and listen with so much compassion and understanding. @ Milky Way Garden

For the second part of our Sharing the Sacred event please join us this week in which Jason McKinney will host us in his backyard and facilitate discussion surrounding the Urban Spiritual Commons, the profane and the sacred. As well as his connection to food, cooking, and Parkdale. We will also be continuing on our art-piece of net-making.

such a special night of story sharing and connection — thank you to everyone who came out last night

the art of collaging holds a special place for us, as it allows us to take pieces of things and make them have a new meaning

Hi Everyone,

My name is Yasmine and I am the interspiritual coordinator here at Making Room and we're excited to be holding a new space in which we will be Sharing the Sacred together with our community.

All summer, we have been exploring and trying to unpack what the sacred means within the context of the contemporary, the urban, and the community & individual. There have been so many questions and experiences that have come up during this time, and what we have seen is how we can and may already incorporate it into our everyday lives. We’ve been thinking a lot about the ways in which the individual and community diverge and intersect and the ways in which our own practices have lead us to these moments.

Please join us for expanding this discussion through an evening of story sharing, meditation, art-making, and coffee & tea.
This event will be happening during the last three Wednesdays of the Month -- August 14, 21, 28th from 6-7:30.

The first event will take place at 101, 77 Wilson Park road (backyard).

Hope to see you all there!
