Virtual Tour of Intentional Communities

REGISTER NOW

Thinking about joining an intentional community? Curious to learn about communities from them directly? Want to peak inside community living and get your questions answered?

The Virtual Tour of Intentional Communities is the event experience for you! Each month we bring together a variety of new and established intentional communities — ecovillages, cohousing, shared homes, coliving spaces and more — to present about about their community in an interactive setting. You’ll experience photos, videos, captivating stories, and insightful dialogue among the presenting communitarians. Plenty of time is included for you to ask your burning questions about community living. Come travel to communities around the world without leaving your armchair!

What you’ll get from the Virtual Tour experience:

• Deeper insight into the lives of communitarians and the places they live
• Inspiration to get you excited about your own community journey
• Information about housing and membership opportunities
• Network building with presenters and fellow participants
• A sense for what’s alive in the communities movement right now
