Polestar’s 1st World Cafe is a Rousing Success!

We had a wonderfully engaged group of 27 adults and 2 young people who participated in the first ever World Cafe at Polestar Village on Sept. 13 on the land in Fort Collins.  We want to thank each one of you who took the time that Saturday morning to participate in the conversation.  It was inspiring, uplifting, and educational and many of us felt not only a deep connection of community but an activating hope for the future.

For those of you who are unfamiliar, the World Cafe Method is a deep conversation & connection process that has been around for 30 years.  It was developed by Juanita Brown and is practiced by communities & organizations across the globe.

We will do this again(!) and if you would like to help please keep in touch. We are exploring ways to include more of the Polestar community online via zoom for future conversations.

We’ll also be sharing a more graphic depiction of the results of the conversations in the near future; stay tuned!
