This year’s spring appeal is our 30-Hour Sit-A-Thon

We surpassed our goal of $40K! Thank you so much for everyone who supported this heartfelt effort!

Sitting for peace in celebration of 30 years of sharing the dharma in the Twin Cities!

  • Give on our pledge page!

    This is our biggest fundraiser yet, but it’s more than a way to raise funds–we hope that through sitting together, inviting others in our lives to join or support us, and encouraging meditators throughout the city to participate, we’re reminding our community that Clouds is a sanctuary. We are run primarily on donations and no one is turned away for lack of funds for any of our programming.

  • Sit with us!

    Whether you come for half an hour, a couple times throughout the weekend, or, like our guiding teacher, Sosan, sit for the whole 30 hours (what?!), you are welcome. People will be on hand to orient you if you’re new to meditation. We are sitting in unguided, noble silence the whole time except for the very last hour, where we will meditate as 108 bells for peace are rung. Then: a community lunch from 1-2!

  • Volunteer

    Do you want to help be a greeter, serve food at the lunch, or otherwise support the effort in person? Email our executive director, Renkyo, and she’ll set you up!

Can’t be here in person? No problem! Join us on Zoom.
