We gather at Cancer Survivors Park Center for Hope & Healing, with gratitude to the Cancer Survivors Park Alliance for welcoming our practice to this quiet place beside the river.
Free public parking is in the lot at 44 Cleveland Street, a short walk from the building. From the lot, walk down the hill toward the river and the Swamp Rabbit Trail. Our entrance is the building at 52 Cleveland Street, beneath the large white sculpture that looks like a circus tent, on the trail by the river. There are restrooms inside.
