A place to share what you’re building, offering, or looking for

Roots speak underground. Stories travel face to face. Something new takes hold.

On February 11, Wonderful Wednesdays becomes a living marketplace of human connection: a place where gifts and needs are spoken aloud, where ideas meet opportunity, and where something new is allowed to emerge through real conversation.

Whether you are offering a service, growing a business, seeking a new job or home, looking for deeper connections in friendships or romance, or quietly nurturing a dream, this evening invites you to step into visibility and be met by your community.

How the evening flows

The first hour is our shared potluck: eating, relaxing, and reconnecting.

The 2-hour workshop that follows unfolds as a guided circle of exchange.

Everyone who wishes to will have one minute to speak into the circle and share what they are offering or looking for: a service, a project, a collaboration, housing, companionship, skills, or support. There is no selling pressure here; only the simple power of being seen and heard.

In addition, three community members will be invited to give a longer TED-style talk, sharing more deeply about what they are building, what they care about, or what they are calling into their lives.

If you would like to be considered for one of these longer shares, please text or email Mariel with a brief description of what you would like to present.

Preference will be given to regular Wonderful Wednesdays community participants.

This is not a networking event in the conventional sense. It is a village gathering; where commerce, creativity, and connection arise naturally when people speak their truth in a circle.

Come as you are.

Bring what you need.

Offer what you can.
