“Inner Light” a whirling performance

Spacious Grace Arts Festival

February 22, 2020, 2:30-3pm at Grace Cathedral, San Francisco.

How to face the reality of our climate crisis? As we witness the unraveling of our world, how can we connect with our emotions individually and collectively? When the lights around us go out, where can we find a source of hope?

This performance is a whirling dance improvisation Alchemy Spinning by Raquel Santiago that talks about one of the most challeging events of our time, climate change, and how to open our hearts to the emotions that climate change creates around us and take actions to change and transform our reality.

This event is part of Spacious Grace, the cathedral’s annual free-form arts festival when we remove the pews and invoke the muse. Now in its sixth year, Spacious Grace runs from February 7 to 22.

This is a donation based performance, you can get your tickets here or at the door.
