Ideas without action aren’t ideas. They’re regrets.

Participant Guide

Everyone Presents

Each person who attends shares something. It doesn’t have to be polished or “important.” It just has to be yours. The goal is curiosity, not performance.

What to Bring

Bring one thing that made you think, question, or imagine this month. It can be:

  • An idea (big, small, or half-formed)

  • A drawing, object, or photograph

  • A story, poem, or memory

  • A performance

  • A problem or constraint you’ve been thinking about

  • A creative challenge for the group

  • A creation of any kind

  • Or anything else that made you pause and wonder

How to Present

Keep it short: 2–5 minutes is plenty. Set the scene, and tell us what sparked your attention or curiosity.

During the Gathering

Each person presents their musing or wonder. The group responds with curiosity and creativity, not critique (unless invited).

Afterward

We’ll photograph or record each presentation for the Musings & Wonder Archive — a growing record of our collective imagination. You can add a short note or reflection if you’d like.

Guiding Spirit

This is not a show-and-tell or a lecture. It’s a space to think out loud, to share half-finished ideas, to wonder together, and to leave with more questions than answers.
