Shifting Seas and Solid Ground

One Day Playshop with InterPlay Co-Founder Phil Porter

Phil Porter

Portland, OR

Saturday, March 12, 9am-4pm

Sometimes it can seem like the world is going a bit crazy all around us, even as we continue to fold our socks, photograph our meals to post on Facebook and pay the utility bill. How do we handle the changes in the political and social landscape and also stay grounded and centered in our simple lives? How do we continue to find the rich new territories on the horizon? Over the course of the day, we’ll play with what’s on our minds and hearts, what we long for and where we think we’re headed. We’ll share our own stories, hear the tales of others, move together and move apart, sing quietly and at the top of our lungs and find delicious community—which is really the answer to many things, isn’t it? Come to make a new friend and deepen ongoing connections. Come to laugh and to lament, to lambast and to learn. Maybe even pick up some new playful tricks to life and creativity.

Cost: $60-$75 sliding scale
