Definition

An Our Collective Becoming Salon is an intentional, leader-full gathering where people come together to explore ideas, tell the truth about our lives, and imagine what else might be possible — for ourselves, for our communities, for the world. Rooted in the long tradition of salons as spaces of curiosity and dissent, these conversations hold space for our stories, our differences, and our collective longing for repair and transformation.

Description

In these salons, we gather around kitchen tables, porches, living rooms — wherever there is room to circle up. We bring our questions, our half-formed ideas, our radical imaginings. We listen deeply and speak honestly, nurturing a culture where new visions can take root.

Our Collective Becoming Salons are not lectures — they are living ecologies of dialogue. They are an invitation to practice what it means to be human together: to stay awake to what hurts, what heals, and what is asking to be born among us.

Everyone is a participant; everyone is a contributor. We share food, we share wisdom, we share the slow, good work of becoming.
