Venue & Accommodation
This year, Web of Change returns to Hollyhock Retreat Centre, an exceptional place deep in Canada's temperate rainforest. Hollyhock inspires and nourishes all who experience it.
Breathtaking views, contemplative beach walks and water activities, like kayaking and night swimming, add to the Web of Change experience. The setting provides change makers with space to recharge.
