KMC Bloomington is officially moving March 12 into a new location a few blocks north to 234 N. Morton Street! We are starting a capital campaign called “A Piece For Peace” to raise funds for a build out.
We are very excited about this relocation as the meditation space will be twice the size of our current center. We will have a designated kitchen for ritual, a full reception desk area and a shop wall with floating bookshelves and ledges.
The total budget for Phase I is $4,971 and will include a new shrine with cabinets, wooden risers for the Buddhas and Venerable Geshe-la’s statue as well as a throne and cushion and exterior awning signage. We've reached this goal – thank you!
"Only by creating peace within our own mind and helping others to
do the same can we hope to achieve peace in this world."
— Geshe Kelsang Gyatso Rinpoche
