The
Goddess Diana holds a place of
remembrance in the memorial garden just inside the gate
which is dedicated
to all of those from our community
who have passed from this life.

The
Gazebo
The
gazebo stands on the North side
of the garden looking out over the labyrinth, creating a
quiet place to meditate, paint, gather in small
numbers or to relax. It is also used
by musicians during the "Music in the Garden"
events and for weddings, memorial services, outdoor classes
and other such gatherings.
|
|
| |

|
Large
green umbrellas are available to
shade the labyrinth area when the
gazebo is being used for events
and a sound system is also
available for rent.

A
Labyrinth for
meditative
walks and contemplation
The
labyrinth is a walking meditation tool associated with ancient
pilgrimage routes and rituals of self discovery. This labyrinth
is from the Papago peoples of North America and is equated
with the Kiva (the sacred ritual space) of the Hopi. Like
all labyrinths it has a single path that leads to the center.
|
|
| |
| |
The
arbor and small grassy area are usable for weddings and
small gatherings of up to 45 people.

prayer
