The Fall Women’s Retreat (rescheduled from July) will be held September 25 - 27 on Earthwork Farm. Facilitated by Lisa Franseen, Kelly Kieft and Ashley Murray, women are invited to join us as we seek to connect with one another, the Earth and our inner selves.

It is a rare gift we can give ourselves, to put aside our many roles and make space for oneself. Imagine having uninterrupted time to share your own story, knowing you will be heard and honored.

Together we will engage in “whole-body” participation - sharing our stories, listening deeply to other’s experiences, spending focused time in nature, indulging in something creative, lightly facilitated group discussions, perhaps guided meditation and movement, readings, journaling, and reflective stillness amongst the trees.

When women gather in this way, empowerment happens! With one another’s unconditional support, our authentic selves can emerge and guide us closer toward the life we are here to live, one in line with our values, our heart, and our purpose.

The afternoon event brings together music, dancing, and community celebration in the heart of Leelanau County. Entertainment will include a performance by **Monique Madison and her Kittens**, with music throughout the afternoon provided by **DJ Jay

Guests can look forward to Mario’s Weenie Bar, graciously donated by **Shapero's Delicatessen of Indianapolis**.

The Tea Dance continues the Chetcuti-Evans Foundation's tradition of hosting community gatherings that support the LGBTQ+ life of Northport and the surrounding region.
