It’s a wonderful way to spend a summer afternoon relaxing under our shaded tent, chatting with sangha friends, and sharing information about ZLMC with Oak Parkers. You’ll helpl us hand out informaiton and invite folks to join our mailing list, all while enjoying the festival’s live music and fun atmosphere. Hope to see you there–whether you can volunteer or just want to stop by and say hello!

About
Cultivating mindful awareness through our practice
Zen meditation and the cultivation of mindful awareness form the core of our practice, offering profound benefits such as stress management, deeper relationships, and a richer life experience.
The center is like a breath of fresh air in this chaotic and ungrounded time in history. It has given me an insightful perspective on what is essential in this life we all share.
