Spring Labyrinth with Celtic Harp

Spring Labyrinth with Celtic Harp

In-person on Friday April 22nd at 7pm

Let us be gathered once again by the Labyrinth! The pandemic has caused so many rifts in our lives as social beings. So let us contemplate how to restore and repair our connection to one another, starting with the communal act of gathering to walk together in the sacred space of the labyrinth. Harpist Lucile Brais Hildesheim will accompany the walk on her Celtic harp.

Donations in support of the programming offered by the Cathedral Labyrinth Guild are most welcome. 

Please keep appropriate distancing in mind and respect the sensitivities of others. Masks are required to be worn at all times in the Cathedral.
