The wait is over and the events schedule for the 2025 Winter Bloom Market & Gathering is up. It proudly represents so much of our Altadena community — who we are, what we need and the people who make up our neighbors and friends (near and wide).
When we thought about what to include this first year, it was important that sessions have a creative component. Creativity opens so many doors in ways such as art, mental health, movement, human connection, problem solving and well being. So how could we funnel some creativity into some healing for all of us?
Well it starts right here in our community. We are fortunate to have so many talented, gifted and giving people, organizations and businesses that share and understand us. As you look at the schedule, you’ll see names and groups you like recognize. They are contributing in so many ways and we couldn’t be more grateful.

The greatest anticipation about Winter Bloom is getting to reconnect with each other and celebrate the steps we’ve taken toward rebuilding.

Layered on top of all that is general joy. The greatest anticipation about Winter Bloom is getting to reconnect with each other and celebrate the steps we’ve taken toward rebuilding. We’re all at different stages of our healing journey. I’m hopeful by coming together before these first post-fire holidays, our togetherness will be of some help.
Final touches are still being added to Winter Bloom, so please follow us on Instagram or Facebook for updates. We’re excited to seeing you soon!
