Manifest it till you break it
Baltic Circle promotes good life: inclusive, communal practices that aim to take care of your brain, soul and/or body, the environment, and the different generations around you; introduce new perspectives, expertise, sharing, belonging. We think about your past, present and future needs but don’t get me wrong, a festival is never about an individual but always about community.
