What's happening over the holidays

A summary

New Zealand Christmas tree in bloom

The office and bookshop will be closed from 5pm on Wednesday, 23 December. They re-open on Monday, 11 January. You can continue to make online bookings over that time.

The centre is still open for several classes over the holiday season, though. Our events page will be kept up to date, so is the most reliable source of information. There are also many summer retreat options. And a Christmas morning puja.
