Headless Workshops

Offered by David Lang

It took me no time at all to notice that this nothing, this hole where a head should have been, was no ordinary vacancy, no mere nothing. It was a vast emptiness vastly filled, a nothing that found room for everything—room for grass, trees, shadowy distant hills, and far above them snowpeaks like a row of angular clouds riding the blue sky. I had lost a head and gained a world.”

— Douglas Harding: On Having No Head.


Come to this Douglas Harding-style workshop, lose your head, and gain the world.
