Children and Teen Programs Fall 2023
Our vision for families with children is to experience MZMC as a welcoming community, offering programming suited to and matching the needs of people of all ages. We seek to help kids discover and treasure what it's like to experience life beyond the imitations of their worries and concerns.
This fall, MZMC will offer youth programs intended for children (age 6 to 12) and teens (age 13 to 15). Programs will provide a variety of hands-on activities intended to explore the rich tradition of Soto Zen practice in a fun, engaging setting.
