COMMUNITY, ART & CULTURE PROGRAM

We are so excited at Heart Place to launch our Community, Art & Culture program. heartplace.community

Here we will offer opportunities to create culture, share culture and build bridges of understanding through art, photography, music, song, storytelling, community gathering, sharing of food, movement and dance.

This program is vital to our overall Vision & Mission.

Our intention through this program and other Heart Place programs is to strengthen our capacity for compassionate listening. Our capacity to hold different perspectives, yet come together to effect the healing and change needed to adjust to a rapidly changing planet and create a socially just world.

The Arts and humanities are so very significant at this time in history. Let us value our artists and musicians, our poets and deep reflective 'thinkers' and together create the space to express what seeks to be felt and shared, the inner artist within each and everyone one of us.

Have you a project you would like to share? Our space is perfect intimate exhibitions, brainstorming gatherings, explorative workshops. Whatever we can imagine and create together.

Email Heartplace. We want to hear from you.

COLLECTIVE HEALING

Together through exploring art and culture we deepen relationship to our bodies, each other and the land. Modern Science now recognises the co-regulation that happens when we sing together, move together, and share stories as one of the most effective ways to heal and connect.

COMMUNITY GROUPS & Activities

Community Chai & Chat

Community Chai & Chat

Community Chai & Chat is a tradition of the Home of Yoga carried forward into our community life at Heart Place. For Decades we have met Saturday's 9.30am following our 8am Yoga class sharing Chai, treats, conversation & laughter.

All Welcome.

Always on display is the Act-Belong-Commit sign.

Our Chai is made with Sam Weinstein's recipe.

SLOW FOOD FEASTS

New Date Coming

A slow food feast is a community celebration where we cook our own food & bring it along to share.

We all need a little more slow in our lives, our nervous systems are happier for it & our tummies!

See Below for our Slow Zone Poster & Handout

Slow Food Feasts often have different themes. The picture above of our last Celebration of slow & food was around Hummus in all its yummy variety.
