1. repose /rəˈpōz/: a state of eternal or heavenly rest.

Dominant culture has conditioned us to believe that we can’t rest until the weekend, or until something like an elaborate (and pricey) vacation is planned.
We don’t agree. Practicing rest is as easy as accessing our breath; welcome to RE•POSE!
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Join us at the inaugural launch of our artistic healing through arts event created by creatives, for reatives.✨😌
(HINT: We’re all creative beings!)
This uniquely designed 2-day event follows a speed-dating style format:
1. As a guest you’ll be greeted with a welcome gift created by Yellow “Maverick” Voodoo + ticket for 1 meal;
2. You’ll then be guided through to meet your assigned Rest Crew (5-10 guests);
3. Each Rest Crew will cycle through every Rest Activation with their Guide Angel; and
4. We will close our circle with a DJ set, cypher and open mic.
REST ROOMS:
1. re•ALIGN Room – Letter Writing activity (self-directed)
2. re•GROUP Room – Lunch and large group sharing, cypher and DJ set with MC Good Medicine
3. re•MOVE Room – Dance and movement activity led by Nicole Pemberton
4. re•STORE Room – Napping and guided meditation activity led by Kate Mak with Junction 9 Yoga and Stephen Bellaart with Radical Gentlemen Creative
5. re•VERB Room – Drumming activity led by Chris Maric with One Big Jam
6. re•WORD Room – Spoken Word activity led by Bethel Afework with Alcove Centre for the Arts
Doors: @6pm | Event: @6:30-9:30pm
We can’t wait to create, play and rest with you.
