LABYRINTH                                                                                                              
We invite people to walk our 80 foot outdoor Chartres labyrinth. The Center also makes our portable canvas Santa Rosa Labyrinth available to groups for use at their site. Walking the labyrinth is an ancient prayer and meditation practice, meaningful for people of many faith traditions. It was adapted in medieval Europe as a symbol of the Christian’s faith in a path to eternal life and as a way to contemplate following Jesus’ journey through life, death, and resurrection. Groups meeting at the Center can use the labyrinth at no additional charge. See Facilities and Fees page for portable labyrinth off-site costs.
