Big thank you to everyone who contributed to our Vital Matters Spring Equinox gathering on Tuesday and brought a friend, collaborator, prompt, song, creature, food, or shared important climate news with our blossoming community. It was a fun, joyous, information-packed, and action-oriented evening! Way to kick off the season, everyone!
Thanks again to Maryland Climate Partners, and our host Creative Alliance. Special thanks to our processional guide and ritual holder Sanahara Ama Chandra, gourd lantern-maker Trustina Fafa Sabah, and our facilitator for Meeting Ground, Rejjia Camphor, for making the gathering extra special, and to Valeska Populoh, Dirk Joseph and Black Cherry Puppet Theater for lending us puppets!
If you missed this one, we would love to see you at the next equinox!
