Connective Gatherings

We believe in-person gatherings are an act of resistance – a way to maintain our humanity and connection in a world that seems far from humane and connected.

Gathering (noun): a coming together of people in a group

  • Support for Your Gatherings

    Does your organization seek to bring people together around an idea, campaign, cause, or simply to listen?

    we can help dream up, design, and develop gatherings that center humanity and build community.

  • Join a COS Gathering

    connecting our stories hosts gatherings in our space throughout the year. we meet to reflect, ideate, learn, and grow together.

    we add new topics all the time. past topics include:

    “living & working intentionally”

    “courage from the heart”

    “identifying our values”

    “finding joy in small doses”

    “untangling work and worth”

  • Request a COS-Themed Talk

    Could your people benefit from some shared time and space? To listen and reflect together, building trust and familiarity along the way?

    COS can come to you with inspiring gathering content and a spirit of belonging.

“The way this program unfolded was like reading a good novel. The author of this community event had planned in advance how the topics would unfold, and the order in which they did, the gravity with which they flowed, was an unveiling of wisdom and heart for all that were in the room.”
