Numen* is a gathering for Asian men who want a place to speak honestly about race, masculinity, our inner lives, and relationships. Many of us carry pressure to be composed, competent, deferential, de-sexualized, or invisible. This is a container to explore who we aspire to be as Asian men. We meet to unpack, heal, and guide each other on a path to deeper becoming.

This gathering will be about Connection & Celebration. We'll facilitate some exercises for us all to be seen and met, as well as for drawing out where we celebrate ourselves and our unique cultural lineage. There will be space for the tender, difficult, and vulnerable to be held by the group.

If you want to be with other men who can understand both the baggage and gifts you grew up with, or if you'd like more community and friendship with Asian men, please join us. We are open to those who consider themselves East, South, and Southeast Asian.

Doors open at 6:45pm. We start at 7pm.

Sliding Scale: $10-40 (suggested $25) offered in the spirit of reciprocity. Your contribution helps cover facility costs. Also accepted are small gifts, like bringing fruit, snacks, or a red envelope.
