The Sunday Gathering
Sacred Space in Tucson is a weekly gathering for live music, inspiration from the world's spiritual traditions, and community connection. We meet on Sunday afternoons at 4:10 pm in the Community Room at Tucson City Council Ward 6, located at 3202 E 1st Street (one block south of Speedway, one block east of Country Club).
Bands and teachers vary each week at this free and open non-faith and interfaith event for those who want to slow down, need a relaxed place for renewal, and who are curious about wisdom traditions but may not resonate with organized religion. Coupling contemplative wisdom with research-based practices, Sacred Space in Tucson is a gathering for those who seek to live a meaningful life. In addition to the weekly gathering, Sacred Space offers coaching, small groups and classes, all with the aim of bringing together inner resources to drive social change.

July 23 Caroline Ragano
Dances of Universal Peace
From the beginning of time, sacred movement, song and story have brought people together; The Dances of Universal Peace are part of this timeless tradition. The dances are simple, meditative, joyous, multi-cultural circle dances using sacred phrases, chants, music and movements from the many spiritual traditions of the earth to touch the spiritual essence within ourselves and recognize it in others. Ishwara Thomas and Caroline Ragano will share more about the Dances and provide opportunities for the group to participate in Dance of Universal Peace!
Caroline will also provide live music, which begins at 4:15.
