5 Days Celebrating Brotherhood

Celebrate the freedom to be your authentic self! Freedom Camp is a five-day event nourishing body, mind, and spirit for men who love men. Laugh, love, and learn with a community of your brothers. You will have many opportunities to explore your growth edge through a wide variety of personal growth workshops, participation in fun social games, an evening fire ritual, drum circles, cookouts, body painting, and more. Men of all ages, backgrounds, and interests come year after year to form a sacred community of brothers where friendships are made and nurtured through conversation, social activities, and shared learning. You will experience the freedom and safety to explore as many (or as few) workshops as you want.
