Rest and Recharge is an event for folks who take part in community care work who are looking for rest and connection. KC is committed to creating programming that is responsive to our community. We’ve heard from folks who are deep in local community care work that they are exhausted, overwhelmed and struggle to find time to rest. In collaboration with MCHT, we put together two day events inviting organizers to be with the land and seek rest/play. Join us for the second of these events on October 10th in the Belfast area (specific location provided after registration). Danielle Arroyo and Daene Kugel will hold this space and offer a guided nature walk and optional crafting projects. Music and vibes courtesy of Kafari. Lunch will be provided.
