WHAT - Event Program

Feel free to bring an object for the community storytelling circle that makes you feel connected in community.

You’re invited to this special gathering celebrating community love of storytelling

Come slow down with us and connect with friends, replenish in the outdoors, and enjoy appetizers, desserts, music, and a raffle. Arrive early for a guided story-sharing walk on the beach. Participate in a community storytelling circle centering community care, connectedness, and living to thrive. Celebrate a few special community honorees who have been longtime supporters of Window Seat Media. Learn about the community relationships and synergy built over this past year and get excited about what is to come at Window Seat Media in 2023!

Can you offer a ride? Do you need a ride?

We recommend carpooling whenever possible, as parking at Tolmie is limited and all vehicles must have a Discover Pass upon arrival ($10/vehicle/day or $30/vehicle/year). Fill out this brief Carpool Interest Form and we’ll help coordinate ride-shares to and from the event. Please also use this form to submit requests for other accommodations, access needs, or dietary restrictions! We want to make sure everyone has a way to and from the event, and an enjoyable and safe time.

Covid safety

This is an in-person event in an indoor space with good airflow. We ask that all community members are vaccinated and able to provide appropriate documentation for the COVID-19 vaccine or proof of a negative COVID test within the past 48 hours. Mask up at the discretion of your own personal comfort. We are capping registrations at 50 people.

Looking forward to being in community with you!
