Free community offering to gather & share the abundance of community resources that support our collective care on the path to liberation.
Join us on June 17th from 1-5pm at El Sereno Community Garden for Well:spring – A Day of Community Wellness! Critical Mass Dance Company invites you to celebrate the summer solstice with us by activating our collective webs of support, nourishment, and mental well-being.
Just as water replenishes our aquifers and builds abundance below, we gather to share the abundance of community resources that support our collective care on the path to our liberation. This is an ongoing series offered by Critical Mass Dance Company–and this instance is supported in part by Take Action for Mental Health Los Angeles!
Come join us this summer to connect and replenish our collective roots!
Come to our Day of Community Wellness to:
receive free 15-20 minute sessions from local healing arts practitioners specializing in acupuncture, herbalism, reiki and somatic movement/embodiment
learn invaluable health and healing resources from local community organizations
try out a Dance from the Heart community workshop led by Critical Mass Dance Company!
build your own mental health goodie bag of items from local vendors!
Schedule TBD
Get there early to sign up for a healing session! All sessions are first come, first serve. Sign up when you arrive with one or more healing arts practitioners.

CMDC provides these community resources free to all to support our collective care on the path to liberation.
WHO: Open and free; anyone can attend!
WHEN: CMDC is offering Community Care Clinics 3x this year, around the Spring Equinox in March, Summer Solstice in June, and Fall Equinox in September!

POEM INSPIRED BY WELL:SPRING
Just like a large forest of trees
Or mycellium that extend for miles underground
Our collective roots reach down to connect
Grounded in community, we share resources
So that we may be strengthened and sustained as one
We gather to replenish our collective roots
Send roots down deeper to connect
To the aquifer of community that connects us all
Circle round the community wellspring
So we all may drink and be refilled
We also gather together so we can go deeper still
Tap into that wellspring inside
That one Source of overflowing life force
That provides a continual supply
Where abundance flows at all times
So that we may all grow and thrive
Healers and collaborators announced soon!
