[OSList] Sat 18th Dec - Winter Solstice 2021 - Celebration, Reflection, Conversations & Play

[Suzanne Daigle]

I love the spirit and creativity of this upcoming gathering. Plan to
attend. Also most appreciative Lucas for all that you have made possible
through QiqoChat and Open Space, taking us beyond Zoom to a feeling of
space and place. I am also forwarding it to others in the soothing
celebration of Winter Solstice.
