Exploring the deep roots of Black contemplation, participants will garner an expansive understanding of both Blackness and contemplation and how to deepen our own contemplative lives.
Our capacity for this series is 20 people. All are welcome to attend; priority is given to BIPOC applicants. You must commit to attending at least 5 of the 8 sessions. Applications are now closed.
