Creating Sacred Space
To open and close the space, we will be creating a communal dambana (altar). You are invited to bring with you an item that represents your ancestors or gratitude to the land. (Examples could include: a photo, a food that your ancestors loved, a shell, your favorite snack, water). We also ask that you bring an offering to the land that you will leave behind, this can be a dried flower, water, a poem, a rock, soil from your garden, etc.
