Our communities are fractured, yet the desire for real connection hasn’t gone anywhere, it’s only grown stronger. As we reclaim our originality, we’re also invited to reconsider how we show up with and for one another.
As risky as visibility can feel, it’s also the entry point to belonging. It’s the bridge between who we are as individuals and how we experience community collectively.
In conversation with Sarah Kim, founder of By Way of Us and It’s Okay to Try, we’ll explore the foundations of cultural stewardship and why connection is essential to living a full, expressed life. Together, we’ll unpack how belonging is cultivated, how community is built with intention, and what it means to take responsibility for the spaces we’re a part of.
The call: we should all be community stewards.
If you’re craving deeper, more meaningful connection, this is an invitation to step in, and to help shape it. Beyond conversation, we’ll engage in the practice of tangible visibility and storytelling through zine making.
