Crafting Calm

Fridays at 11am

Crafting Calm is a creative sanctuary in the middle of a noisy world.
 

Here, slowing down isn’t just allowed, it’s the whole point. Whether you’re stitching a prayer shawl, sketching in a visual journal, or building a small altar from gathered things, each project becomes a doorway to presence, peace, and quiet joy.

Friday at the Movies

Friday, January 9th at 2pm
in Room 50

Have you ever experienced a profound sense of peace while watching a sunset or some kind of unexplainable energy while in a forest? The connection between nature and spirituality is a fundamental human experience recognized for millennia. 
 

My Octopus Teacher is a documentary that explores such a connection. The film covers a year spent by filmmaker Craig Foster forging a relationship with a wild common octopus in a South African kelp forest. The film won Best Documentary Feature at the 93rd Academy Awards. 

Connecting with nature is a journey that can lead to profound insights and a deeper understanding of our place in the universe.
