# Event Details - **Event Name**: Spring Equinox Community Gathering – A Morning of Ritual and Renewal - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 09:00 am – Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 11:30 am - **Event Description**: Celebrate SPRING with a guided nature art workshop and labyrinth walk, grounding and setting intentions in harmony with the turning season.About this EventAt the bright turning between winter and summer, we gather in celebration - of light returning, of earth awakening, of the quiet joy of being alive together. Join us to celebrate the Spring Equinox!This is a morning of earth, art, and shared ritual - just like spring, the experience will be bright, gentle, spacious, and quietly alive.We begin in circle, arriving fully. We'll intentionally step onto the land with open senses and a spirit of curiosity. Guided by a Morning Altars–inspired practice, we wander, notice, gather, and create - allowing the natural world to surprise us. There is something playful and reverent in the experience, something that feels both ancient and entirely fresh!With simple materials offered by the season, we will shape something impermanent and meaningful. No artistic skill is needed, only presence. What unfolds is personal, beautiful, and often unexpectedly moving. We hold it lightly. We celebrate it. And when the moment is right, we let it go.From this place of connection and creativity, we will enter the labyrinth together. Walking its winding path becomes a living threshold - an embodied honoring of what has carried us through the darker months and an opening to the warmth and possibility ahead.Your presence - the gift. And the magic belongs to the moment.What we can promise is this: a morning that feels like a mini-retreat! A shared crossing. A celebration of season and spirit. An invitation to step into spring with clarity, gratitude, and a quiet kind of joy.We would be honored to celebrate this turning with you.Meet your guides: Laura Kirk & Amy Fairbanks https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/27506850-0eb0-11f1-8489-bfa57dd9257e-rimg-w1069-h740-dc141513-gmir.jpg Laura Kirk is enjoying the freedom of a new chapter as a strategic consultant and mentor.
