Ahenk means harmony in Turkish language. The event designed in face-to-face and online versions. It offers participants practices for deep listening, allowing them to explore the concepts of thresholds, turning points, and life changes through their own lived experiences. By noticing and marking, they are realigned and remembered by their unique place in the world. While this exploration unfolds, they are held, mirrored and listened by the community. The event provides a space to practice belonging by fostering relationships with both the human and non-human worlds.
The project involves designing the content, the process, and visual promotional materials for an online and physical event.

"Rites of Passage is the ceremonial process that marks the transition from one phase of life to another. They are turning points in our life when we go through key changes where our identity, behaviors, choices, and roles change. The Rite of Passage ceremony is instrumental in how we accept growth, challenge, and change."
