What to Expect

Before the event, we have free coffee, tea, and hot chocolate and participants mingle and wander.

Then the event begins with a welcome announcement that frames the theme, followed by our ritual 1-minute silence, inviting us to drop into a contemplative space.

Music begins, and poetry is woven in. You can sit and listen, lie down, engage with our community art offering, do your own creative work, or wander to absorb the exhibited art.

The space feels quiet and attentive while also feeling warm and casual. All ages are welcome, and kids often lie on the “fuzzy rug” to play quiet games or color.

  • "It was such a healing and positive experience -- exactly what I was seeking, especially with the world feeling so heavy right now. It created a sense of connection and hope that I truly needed."

  • "So accessible, from the freedom to move around to arts and crafts for everyone. I can't wait to invite more friends."

  • "It reminded me about what is actually important about making music, or just art in general. It felt so purposeful while still delivering an incredible musical experience."

The Realm Event Location

Center for Creativity
200 Mathews St, Fort Collins, CO 80524

The Center for Creativity (C4C) at the Historic Carnegie Library is just west of the Public Library Downtown. The C4C features a public gallery where artists from various disciplines display their diverse artistic expressions. 

Surrounded by tall trees and adjacent to the Library Park playground, you can find the perfect spot for a picnic after a Realm event. The Heritage Courtyard, near the entrance of the Center for Creativity, is a fun place to connect to the past and explore historic buildings.
