ABOUT LIZ

Liz works in the nonprofit sector, specializing in community engagement, advocacy, outreach, and direct support. Drawing from her background in political science and project coordination, she focuses on people-centered approaches that connect individuals and families to resources and community-based services.

VISION

A future where San Francisco continues to grow as a safe haven for all communities, where rest, care, joy, and well-being are part of everyday life.

Rhythms of Rest

Dreaming a Civic Future From a Place of Rest

In a city shaped by urgency and burnout, rest is rarely prioritized despite being essential for sustainable participation in community and civic life. At its core, this gathering is a celebration and restoration of those who are showing up for others across their work, families, and communities. Join us for a specially curated experience rooted in community care through local artists, poets, craftmakers, and healers.
