**Who We are..... 🤝** Our journey to bring people together began in January of 2022. The group was started with a simple intention to gather and meet some likeminded people - connecting through the powerful act of meditation and sharing our genuine selves while sitting in a circle that represents equality, harmony and wholeness( *we believe everyone in the circle is a teacher and a student at the same time)*. And over the last 4 years of consistently coming together, we have fostered a beautiful, loving, dependable community where members from all walks of life have experienced a sacred space to sit in silence together and meditate, share their authentic selves, give presence to others and forge meaningful and long lasting connections. The Meditations are guided by Sana(co-founder and host), who is a Trained and certified meditation teacher by the Meditation Association of Australia, and has been guiding meditations for 3+ years in corporate and community settings. ✨ **Do you wish to....** * Experience a simple yet powerful meditation and breathing practice to find calm, relaxation and clarity * Connect with like-minded people in your local community and foster meaningful connections * Meet others who are passionate about growing, uplifting themselves, and supporting others * Share insights from your personal journey (or simply listen and learn) Or maybe you just want to... ☮️ **Spend your Sunday evening in a peaceful, zen space and meet new people? Bring a friend (or two!) and let’s connect.** **What’s on the evening’s flow?** * **Open meet & greet** – connect and settle in * **5 min guided meditation** to land into the space and connect within * **Sharing circle** (totally optional!) – share your thoughts or simply listen * **20-30 min guided meditation** – for relaxation and deeper connection **Where?** 📍 **250 George St, Fitzroy VIC 3065** Enter through the church gates.

✨ I invite you to a special evening born from silence, harmony, and love for music - 🎶 **Music needs no translation — it speaks in the voice of the heart, even when the world falls silent.** In times like these, it feels more important than ever to keep listening — and to truly hear. There is music that sounds beautiful. And there is music that has lived through history. A few things to know before concert [Harmony Bridge: Ukraine–Australia. With Ukraine in the Heart](https://www.facebook.com/events/2444840435976414/?__cft__%5B0%5D=AZaiWrl7AdRwZQkjTd5wGfL8ETUtwOtQ-Vs6ndJuTGBF4OQKRYH77tMtTDzcyw3EHXVl4xMPwNZojzfo46Yup3h-uXx0EwfWoNgd7GbYPjS4yrECQtadB0kiBCI2bKc_9g231u4mbqYqrPbl4OR00vgWc_ZCZbDtBlaGjIlM3h32MeJNHU9PZBEblMXgfOq-nfSlsitlkxwwV_qAnY62q43f&__tn__=-UK-R): A string quartet is a form where nothing can be hidden — every sound is exposed, every emotion is real. That is why composers entrusted it with their most personal thoughts. Ukrainian chamber music was often created in difficult times — becoming a way to preserve what could not be spoken aloud. Some of the melodies you will hear were written over a century ago, yet they still resonate as if they were created today. A quartet is always a conversation. Between instruments. Between composer and listener. Between past and present. On 3 May, this conversation will come to life. * **🗓 Sunday, 3 May 2026 – 3:00 PM** **⏰ Doors open 2:00 PM** **📍 Ukrainian House, 3–11 Russell Street, Essendon VIC 3040** * 🎟️ **Tickets:** [https://www.trybooking.com/DKDFH](https://www.trybooking.com/DKDFH?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExODEzeTdTWlV4bUV4dzRzdHNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR71eSdmD05pJ_PtDBCBCw1OTw2dzJJfSzLjIxC2q84asDiDVz-nklmP5Kx6bA_aem_3ipqV8ZEvf1tktRE_kI40Q) * or cash at the doors **TICKETS** $35 – GENERAL ADMISSION $45 – CONCESSION STUDENT \| PENSIONER \| UNEMPLOYED All proceeds will support **Harmony Bridge: Ukraine–Australia**, a not-for-profit organisation dedicated to preserving and promoting Ukrainian music and arts in Australia. 🌿 Music that stays with you long after the final note.
