Getting away from our regular routines and spaces as well as sculpting out a larger chunk of time can be a great way to build belonging and community, wrestle with some big ideas, and practice weaving life deeply. Fabric offers a number of ways for youth to do just that! Whether it is a weekend away on retreat or a whole week away at camp or a summer trip, youth can engage in a variety of new experiences that help us all to think big and show up in brave ways, and they are just a lot of fun too!
