“Fire of Hope” at Harbor Park

2nd Annual FIRE OF HOPE Gathering for Peace! This Event will now be held INDOORS at The Mattabesett Canoe Club!

December 31 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
You’re invited to our special “Fire of Hope” at Harbor Park, where encouraging words, music and peaceful sing-alongs bring us together in releasing the old and affirming all that is beautiful in the New Year.

Now, more than ever, gathering for Peace is crucial. Our collective thoughts are powerful and we must focus on peace and love to create that in our world. Join us as we head to the CT River for a program for peace and spiritual renewal. The event begins and ends with sound healings and includes various speakers, music, dance and the Fire of Hope, concluding at sunset.

Andrew Prue, who created Shaking the Tree Gong and Sound Meditation at TBT, sets the tone for this unifying event. Annaita Gandhy, inspired teacher of the weekly Aligned With Source Interactive Workshop and Meditation at TBT, will talk about the importance of letting go of the past, releasing the negative energies of 2017, and looking forward with hope to a more loving, peaceful, bright 2018, as well as offer a brief guided meditation and blessing. Guests will be invited to write down their burdens of fear, resentment, anger, worry, feelings of unworthiness … to be transmuted into positive energy in the Fire of Hope. We’ll “burn our burdens” in the Fire of Hope together!

Another Buttonwood Tree program, Moments of Gratitude will be led by Anne-Marie McEwen; a community sing-a-long with HannaH’s Field and others, will lead to sunset. Hot apple cider will be provided, and restrooms will be available, courtesy of our good friends at the Mattabesett Canoe Club.

Donations are welcome to support The Buttonwood Tree programming and another charity, Artists for World Peace.
