Liminal’s 2004 retreat

Liminal’s 2004 annual summer retreat took place at the Timbers Resort on Pender Island in British Columbia. The ensemble and invited guests from as far away as New York spent a week in three resort houses and used a large sunlit ballroom for our daily workshops and activities. The week gave us the chance to work together as an ensemble, to develop key components of the Resurrectory, and to have a great time.

Liminal’s 2004 retreat was made possible by a grant from the Flintridge Foundation.
