2️⃣ MAKE ART
Once people find each other, something natural happens.

They start creating.

Art here isn’t limited to paint or performance. It’s expression in every form. Music, movement, workshops, costumes, ideas, experiments, strange inventions, collaborative moments that only exist for a weekend.

Art is how humans process the world.
It’s how we communicate what words can’t quite capture.
It’s how we make life more beautiful.

Whatever your medium is, if it comes from curiosity, play, and a desire to connect with the human experience… Your art belongs here.

Now that we’ve all found each other... Make art.

3️⃣ LEVEL UP
Real friendship creates trust and safety.
Art opens the door to expression and new perspectives.

And somewhere in the middle of those two powerful forces, something else appears: opportunities for transformation.

When you’re surrounded by people who support you and celebrate your growth, change becomes possible.
That’s the trifecta.

Make friends.
Make art.
Level up.

To us, that sounds like the ingredients for a life well-lived. If it resonates with you, join us at May 1-2, 2026 for .gathering and September 18-19, 2026 for

Happy New Year, Sondering family!

2024 has been a year of remarkable growth, a few hard lessons learned, and countless moments that reminded us why this community is so incredibly special. As we theorized, there is no proven step-by-step playbook for creating an accessible, purpose-driven community, whose culture is rooted in healing, growth, and mind-body-spirit expansion, and also isn’t a cult or a commune, and doesn’t have a centralized governance structure… but through trial and error—mostly wins and a few stumbles—Sondering’s purpose, direction, and strategy have never been clearer.

This past year, we took a big step forward by transitioning Sondering into a DAO LLC—a fancy way of saying we’re officially committed to decentralized, community-driven leadership. In 2025, we’re evolving this even further. Be on the lookout for updates here!

In 2024, we continued to witness the collapse of the traditional music festival industry, as most of them fail to adapt to the evolving needs of the communities they claim to serve. People are seeking something deeper—something with meaning, connection, and a generational impact. The Mosaic gathering is our response. Mosaic is our annual community-built gathering that’s redefining what festivals can be. It’s not just another fleeting weekend; it’s an intentional celebration of life where we come together to create a legacy that spans generations—a space where we can bring our children, our parents, our art, music, wisdom, our dreams for the future, our willing hands, and our open minds and hearts. Follow .gathering to stay up to date on news and announcements. Big stuff coming!

As we look to 2025 and beyond, we’re committed to expanding Sondering’s impact. Through projects like Mosaic and , we aim to grow our network of intentional gatherings while staying true to our core values of nurturing mind-body-spirit wellness, self-expression, acceptance, collaboration, and sustainability with a generational mindset. It’s an exciting time, and we’re grateful to have you with us on this journey.

Here’s to a new year filled with connection, creativity, and love.

Let’s make 2025 unforgettable.
