There will be three different opportunities to take workshops over the course of the weekend. Our workshop ethos prioritizes affordability and accessibility, with the majority offered on a sliding scale basis and as low as $5. This approach aims to empower you to select the workshops that resonate.

Whether you opt for one or three workshops, the choice is yours. You will register for all workshops at the gathering, payments will be made to our facilitators during the gathering.
