Formal meditation begins promptly at 7:15 p.m. Participants are encouraged to arrive on time because of a building alarm system that goes into effect once the doors are shut.
Parking is available on the street.
Participants should enter, using the blue door, on the south side of the building. This leads to the basement, which is handicap-accessible.
