The Northern Commons is a shared space, and we welcome thoughtful proposals from people who feel aligned with its spirit.
What we're looking for
If you have an idea for a conversation, workshop, musical offering, contemplative practice, or creative gathering that supports learning, connection, and shared meaning-making, we'd love to hear about it.
We're especially interested in gatherings that:
The Commons is not available as a traditional rental venue. All proposed gatherings should resonate with the mission and tone of the space.
What to know
Proposals will be reviewed by the Commons organizers before being scheduled. Not every idea will be the right fit, and that's totally okay. Our aim is to cultivate offerings that feel intentional, welcoming, and attuned to the space.
If your proposal is accepted, we'll work together to shape the gathering in a way that feels aligned and supportive for everyone involved.
Who you are and a bit about your background. A short description of your proposed gathering. What participants might experience. How it supports connection, learning, or shared meaning-making. Your hope for the format (conversation, workshop, music, etc.). Any practical needs (time frame, equipment, etc.).
Tell us about your gathering. We'll get back to you soon.
We've received your proposal and will be in touch. In the meantime, check out our upcoming events.
