Honor the darkness. Welcome the Light.
Join the Holistic Health Community for a luminous afternoon of kinship, contemplation, and reawakening as we gather to honor the turning of the year.
Led by Kathleen Mandeville, spiritual practitioner and ceremonialist, together with special guest artists and facilitators from our community, this participatory celebration invites you to pause in the stillness of winter, release what is complete, and welcome the returning light.
Through a blend of music, meditation, poetry, and ritual, we’ll journey together from darkness to illumination—awakening hope, gratitude, and a deep sense of connection. After the ceremony, stay for seasonal refreshments, music, and conversation as we share the joy of community and renewal.
This celebration offers a chance to:
- Reflect on the year just past and set heartfelt intentions for the one ahead
- Experience the healing power of collective ritual and song
- Celebrate community as a beacon of light in uncertain times
The event is open to the public, with donations gratefully accepted to support Holistic Health Community's mission of holistic healing and community wellness. Come as you are—bring an open heart and a wish for the year to come. Pre-registration encouraged.
