Announcing: Who Are the Ritual Alchemists?
We're proud to introduce the six artists who will take on the role of Ritual Alchemist - creating unique and magical experiences, together with local communities, around the concept of Ecological Belonging at each regional Hearth Summit in 2024.
The Summits including Ritual Alchemists in 2024 are being held in Austria, Brazil, Colombia, India, Japan, and Senegal. They will be a place for changemakers to explore and celebrate wellbeing for social change through themes such as the arts, trauma and healing, ecological belonging, community and belonging, and systems change.
