TLS Annual Gathering
REGISTRATION FOR THE 2019 ANNUAL GATHERING IS NOW OPEN!
Early Bird Discount deadline is August 15, 2019.
The Labyrinth Society Annual Gathering is a casual, public conference spanning three days with special workshops and local tours before and after the main event. It is a time when labyrinth enthusiasts and experts gather from around the world to learn, share, and celebrate labyrinths. The Annual Gathering includes featured speakers, break-out sessions, sales of labyrinth-related products, silent auction, and a wide variety of labyrinths for walking.
The Annual Gathering provides opportunities to meet and network with others who use and love labyrinths, learn new approaches, experience new labyrinth designs, and support the spread of labyrinth wisdom and community around the world. The Annual Gathering includes the annual business meeting of The Labyrinth Society, where members are elected to the Board of Directors and have input into the activities of the organization. You can have lunch with a labyrinth expert from another continent, try your hand at building a labyrinth, or shop for unique items not available anywhere else. The location and theme for the Annual Gathering changes each year, allowing us to visit many regions.
The 2019 Annual Gathering will be held at the Pearlstone Center in Reisterstown, Maryland, October 18-20, 2019. This will be The Labyrinth Society's 21st Annual Gathering. The theme will be Journey of the Heart: Making Connections, Building Community, Finding Common Ground. Our featured speakers will be Mark Healy and Eve Hogan. Mark your calendars and plan to attend, and watch these pages for more information as the 2019 program develops.
