ANNUAL OPEN DAY AT ODIYANA KMC IN CHESHIRE
In September, Odiyana KMC hosted its annual Open Day when people from the local community could come and see what the centre was all about.
As well as offering 4 free taster meditation sessions throughout the day, we also offered children’s meditation and a pop-up cafe and vegetarian BBQ.
The community baked cakes and helped to set up beforehand, making the day a huge success. We even had some local dogs show up to sample the BBQ food.
It was a very special and auspicious day!
annual free Open Day in WALES
Our annual free Open Day is part of OpenDoors/Drysau Agored which runs throughout September celebrating Wales' rich built heritage. Despite the building being covered in scaffold the event once again proved popular with locals and visitors from further afield. People enjoyed short guided meditations with Kadam Paul and explored the newly refurbished Meditation Room. Ian, our Admin Director provided tours and talked about the history of the building throughout the day. Our wonderful volunteers baked fabulous cakes and ran the cafe and information desk.
Over the past year, the main public areas of the building have been re-decorated and facilities improved to enable us to provide a more attractive and welcoming space for our visitors.
It was a real pleasure to introduce new people to our beautiful meditation centre and to welcome back familiar faces. There was a lovely warm, relaxed atmosphere throughout the day and many visitors commented on the beauty and peace of the historic building. There was also a lot of interest in our classes and courses that take place across the region.
It was a very blessed day and we are already looking forward to next year's event when many external repairs and renovations should be complete.
