Naropa University’s success at the 2023 Psychedelic Science Conference would not have been possible without the countless staff, students, faculty, and alumnx who stepped into this journey with open hearts. These individuals cultivated new perceptions and created moments of connection, contemplation, and play. 

Whether you were part of the Happenings Troupe, Deep Space, the Contemplative Space team, or Headmaze, thank you for bringing your presence, wisdom, and creativity to create a more beautiful and just future. Learn more about what they created

Our deepest gratitude goes to Liana Gillooly at MAPS for believing in our vision and helping us bring it to life.
