Sonoma Mountain Zen Center Temple Benefit 2017
Event Information
Description
MANIFESTING THE HEART, BUILDING FOR THE FUTURE
This year, we are hosting an exclusive temple benefit in concert with the commencement of our long awaited Mandala Project. Due to limited space from construction, we are transforming the 2017 Bazaar into an intimate temple benefit. Celebrate and support our new Sonoma Mandala with an elegant, intimate afternoon of Zen on the tranquil mountainside. Guests will experience an authentic Omotsenke tea ceremony, classical Indian ragas, and a bento box meal with dessert and refreshments under the ancient oak tree. All proceeds go to the construction of our new community building. Event tickets limited to the first one hundred guests.
