On Friday June 7th, we plan to have some learning, dialogue and connecting. We are beginning a strategic visioning process and look forward to some good dialogue about your dreams for Tatamagouche Centre. We will share updates on our green retrofit and other exciting projects. As always, we will review our financial situation and auditor’s report.

This program is to support and motivate participants to meet a planet in crisis with courage, curiosity, playfulness and love. Participants will learn the history, benefits, and how to do Forest Bathing.

We invite you to join us for a weekend of InterPlay - a chance to connect more deeply to our personal, collective and ancestral body wisdom as a resource for these deeply transformative, turbulent times. Share in the simple magic of embodied connection through story, sound, movement and stillness. Bring your sorrow, your silly, your sage - the fullness of you - and together we will uncover the power of play as a source for building inner and community resilience.

"For me, the crux of music is to find your own voice. You put yourself and your spirit into it. If you do, we'll feel you" --Linda Carvery. Join Linda Carvery, award-winning blues and gospel singer for a joyful healing singing workshop to chase the winter blues. Linda will offer exercises to help you find your voice, and bring yourself to the songs. We're thrilled to have Linda share a part of her one-act play "Watch over Me," a tender story of resilience told through humour and song. Linda will be supported by facilitator and poet, Nanci Lee on facilitation design and delivery for the workshop.

A supportive, peer-led weekend for playing, play-testing, and leading role-playing games - beginners are more than welcome! Some of the themes we explore together: how to make the move from player to game leader; how to build inclusion and community; and how to support diversity, disability, and mental health through Roleplaying Games.

On Feb 29th 7:00 pm Atlantic Time Tatamagouche Centre and Women of First Light will welcome the Cassandra Ferrera and Jason Patten, from Centre for Ethical Land Transition (CELT) to this first of several webinars exploring the practical process of land rematriation. CELT has supported organizations and their communities in culturally-grounded land transitions (land back). Because they have accompanied a number of these processes in the United States including with Indigenous and BIPOC communities, they can help us to see patterns, principles and things to consider in our journey.
