A quieter kind of gathering.

The Candlelight Salon is inspired by the philosophical salons of earlier centuries, spaces where people came together to think aloud, exchange ideas and offer one another perspective.

The room will be softly lit with candles, with wine and numerous small plates served as the evening unfolds.

Before the event, members will have the option to submit anonymous dilemmas or questions on themes such as career, friendship, relationships or life decisions. The writer of said dilema will be unknown even to the host. The thoughts or dilemmas will be read aloud during the evening.

Together, the room becomes a kind of modern court of Minerva: thoughtful, supportive and curious.

Members reflect, discuss and offer their perspectives; not to judge but to help illuminate possibilities.

An evening of honesty, reflection and shared wisdom. Topped up with some wine and bites.
