Here’s 5 things to do in and around Victoria on Tuesday, March 18th:
Poetic Circle: Haus of Owl
Poetic Circle, hosted by Haus of Owl, is a workshop where everyone is invited to connect with their intuition.
Facilitated by Angélique Germain, Poetic Circle starts with a guided meditation and then let’s participants embrace their intuitive creativity by writing, drawing, playing music, meditating, contemplating and whatever else you need to get creative.
It’s a space to do or not do what we are inspired by during the moment. At the end, we share our experience and/or creations.
Tickets are $10 for non-members.
