A note to the Community: Though our last day at our previous space was April 30, 2019, our Members and Friends have continued to gather for monthly practice and other events at member’s homes. Our aspiration is to maintain a “strong heart” of connection with those in the local community who wish to continue practicing, studying and being together.
