We shake with joy, we shake with grief.
What a time they have, these two
housed as they are in the same body."

~Mary Oliver

We shake with joy, we shake with grief.
What a time they have, these two
housed as they are in the same body.

~Mary Oliver

We shake with joy, we shake with grief.
What a time they have, these two
housed as they are in the same body.

WONDERSTORY

Wonderstory is a big-hearted form of communal ritual art that works with the intelligence of grief to imagine and embody a more humane, and regenerative world.

Wonderstory brings people together from diverse life experiences to create eco-poetic myths of renewal. Each project becomes a collective witness to our heartbreak and unlocks the mutual care needed to remember our kinship with all of life.

These experiences integrate our true, stories of love and longing with reverent and irreverent song, performance, puppetry, dance, and communal grief ritual. They range from intimate circles to intersectional, ensemble-ripened happenings. They are held in kitchen, forests, backyards, and on beaches — anywhere and everywhere that wonder dwells.
