Friday Night Zen is a vibrant and diverse meditation group for people in early- and mid- adulthood. We welcome new and experienced meditators. Please come and check it out!

Wear comfortable clothing for sitting that is not too tight. There will be meditation cushions with mats, and also chairs for sitting depending on your preference.

Our meeting will start with introductions followed by a 30-minute period of meditation partly guided and partly silent. After, the facilitator will share on the topic they have chosen, and then others in attendance are able to share if they wish, on the topic, or on whatever they feel called to share. Afterwards, there will be optional tea time and snacks, and people can hang out and chat till 8:30 or so. We hope you can make it!

We meet in person on the first Friday of the month **but due to a scheduling conflict at the Zen center, we will be meeting the SECOND Friday in December.** Please be fully vaccinated and stay home if sick (or, if symptoms are minor, wear a mask). Please refrain from wearing heavily scented perfumes or lotions, as to respect the space for all.

**This event has a suggested donation of $10**, but no one is turned away if they're unable to pay. Venmo / cash / check / card are all accepted at the center. The facilitators are volunteers, so all proceeds go to Clouds in Water Zen Center, and pay for, among many other things, our Meetup subscription.

We are part of Clouds in Water Zen community in the heart of Saint Paul. We practice in the Soto Zen Buddhist tradition, dedicated to awakening the heart of great wisdom and compassion. We welcome people of all backgrounds and faiths.
