Welcome to the Fremont Stoa - your friendly neighborhood third space
Details
Welcome to your friendly neighborhood third space—a haven where philosophy blooms and conversation dances like candlelight on ancient stone. Here, amidst the gentle clink of coffee cups and the soft murmur of kindred souls, we gather each week to explore the timeless wisdom of Stoicism. Cradle a warm drink between your hands. Let your thoughts wander. Let your spirit settle into questions as old as humanity itself:
What is my purpose? Where does meaning reside when the world shifts beneath my feet?
Perhaps your sense of direction once clung to things that have since faded. Perhaps you're adrift—seeking, yearning, hoping that the next thing will anchor you… only to wonder if it, too, will change.
Come, sit with us. Hear the echoes of ancient voices—Stoic philosophers who taught not how to escape life’s tempests, but how to sail through them with grace.
Together, we learn to welcome our circumstances, to sculpt our desires, and to root ourselves in the cardinal virtues: wisdom, justice, courage, and temperance—timeless beacons for a well-lived life.
Step beyond the curtains of space and time with us, where eternal truths await, whispering their secrets across the ages. Let's make this existence meaningful for us all — one lifetime should be enough.
Come, and be part of it.
