The Hearth, a nonprofit with the mission of cultivating space for rest, restoration, and reconnection, has now been open in Silver City for four months, and invites further community participation.
The organization holds the view that for people and communities to function optimally, they need time and space for rest and reconnection. Without this, their health, energy, imagination, creativity, and well-being are compromised. Furthermore, when we rest, we are able to reconnect with our wholeness, which is inherent and unconnected from productivity or accomplishment. The Hearth cultivates spaces for rest and connection on its campus for communal gatherings, affordable retreat space, and low-cost office rentals to mission-aligned partners.
