Over Steeped

Join us for Over Steeped, an intimate gathering exploring listening, connection and care through the shared moments and magic of tea.

Bringing together plant meditation, book and poetry readings, ambient music and a collective tea ceremony, the event invites us to slow down, tune in and explore different pathways of connection with the human and more-than-human world.

Inspired by the work of Robin Wall Kimmerer, Pauline Oliveros, Brandon LaBelle, the Sono-(soro)ridades Collective and the Listening Academy, Over Steeped approaches listening as a practice of care and a way of cultivating kinship. Like tea leaves releasing their flavor through time and connection, relationships unfold through patience, attention and reciprocity. The gathering invites us to consider how we might extend our sense of connection beyond ourselves, recognizing the many forms of interdependence that shape our relationships with people, plants, places and the wider living world.

Come as you are and join us in creating a space for collective presence, curiosity and exchange. No prior knowledge or experience with meditation or listening sessions is necessary, just an openness to listen, share and steep in the possibilities of being together.
