Empty Hand Zen Group

EHZC is a priest-led practice center. Senior students assist in leading weekly practice and guide programming and outreach. Community operations are led by sangha members who offer volunteer hours to do work such as maintain the website, record and transcribe talks, maintain the building and garden, and lead programs such as the instruction for Zen meditation that enrich our shared practice.

The community exists because of the engagement and support of those who have connected with our teachers, our community members, and the practice of Zen. Our operations are funded entirely through donations, which include annually pledged member support.
