October.

The leaves are turning. The nights are drawing in. Things are changing out there — and probably in here too.

So we’re gathering again.

Root & Gather is something Emma and I have been creating together for the last few years. It changes with the seasons, and lately we’ve been letting it change a little too.

This October we want to make more room for creativity.

We’ll move. We’ll breathe. We’ll drink cacao.

But there’ll also be words. Poetry. Stories. Things to make with our hands. Writing. Sound. Maybe a little singing.

And, eventually, we’ll lie down under blankets and do absolutely nothing for a while.

Autumn is so often talked about as the season of letting go. We’re not sure it needs to be quite that simple.

Maybe some things come with us.

The people. The memories. The bits of ourselves we’ve grown into. The things this year has taught us. The things we’re still figuring out.

So this gathering is less about getting rid of things and more about noticing.

What has this year given you?

What feels finished?

What is worth keeping?

And what would you quite like to carry with you into winter?

No need to arrive feeling particularly zen.

Come as you are.

Sunday 25 October · 6–9pm
