This weekend retreat is a wonderful opportunity to learn meditation or deepen your existing practice.

Ryūmon Hilda Gutiérrez Baldoquín is a Cuban-born and Harlem-raised Soto Zen priest in the lineage of Shunryu Suzuki Roshi. She is the founder of the People of Color Sitting Group at the San Francisco Zen Center and co-founder of the Buddhist Meditation Group for the LGBTQ community at The Center, also in San Francisco.

Please consider your personal schedule before registering for this retreat. In an effort to hold a space of community, we ask that each participant be fully present for the entire retreat. This includes full participation in both days of meditation and dharma talks, as well as being mindful and present at each of the four meals held in Noble Silence.

All meals will be provided and are covered by the cost of the retreat.

Co-sponsored by the Center for Contemplative Mind in Society and the Smith College School for Social Work.
