MULTITUDES:  A GATHERING

What does it mean to contain multitudes - both as an individual and as a community? How do we find permission to show up as our whole, many-faceted selves? How do we hold seemingly contradictory truths with curiosity and courage? And if we brought our multitudes together in a cabin in the woods, what new superpowers might emerge? What would the music sound like?

We invite you to join musicians, activists, and polymaths Vienna Teng and Alex Wong to explore those questions in a very special retreat, set amid the stunning beauty of the Great Smoky Mountains in autumn. Alex and Vienna will host this intimate gathering over three nights and four days in a 20-bedroom cabin in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Come reflect and relax, forge new friendships, and get inspired to show up more powerfully in the world, as only you can.

When: September 25-28, 2024. Activities begin the evening of Wednesday September 25, and conclude the evening of Friday, September 27. Check-out is the morning of Saturday, September 28.

Where: Gatlinburg, TN, the gateway to Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Gatlinburg is a 1 hour drive from Knoxville and 4 hours from Nashville or Charlotte, NC. Carpooling is encouraged!
