A Spring Cleaning/Seed Planting Care Cafe
It’s officially spring! Some blossoms have come and gone and our trees are showing off a new shade of green but for a lot of us it is hard to feel the hope and renewal associated with this glorious season.
So for our next Care Cafe we are wondering how small acts of spring cleaning and seed planting might refresh and sustain us? Especially now, with all that is happening in our country and in the world.
Please join us for a Spring Cleaning/ Seed Planting Care Cafe, where we can sit in a sunny room of care and possibly find the rest and regeneration we need to keep going.
May 6, 2025 from 5pm -7pm, at the Community Room at La Mama, 74 East 4th Street, NYC.
The Care Café is designed as a space to gather under a roof of care and possibly strategize for a more hopeful and a more careful future. Set up like a conventional café with small tables and chairs, the Care Café acts as a temporary venue for community and conversation with some simple table activities set up within a framework of care. Just by entering the room, we acknowledge something of our own needs in the present moment and our desire to give and receive care.
The Care Café asks us to turn up as we are, with no specific agenda, expectation, or discussion topic, simply asking the question: How can we maintain an attitude of care in an uncaring world?
You can RSVP to let us know you are coming, but you can drop in anytime between 5-7 pm on Monday.
We hope to be holding these Care Cafes monthly. Stay tuned for dates.
