As with any true third space, guests can stop by, relax, ask for directions, chat, or PARTICIPATE in one of 3SP’s events focusing on all kinds of issues: being introverted on Playa; navigating the world as a stutterer/stammerer; identifying unconscious biases; Native-American appreciation versus appropriation; relaxing with essential oils or a camera obscura mediation; and more. We’ve been around since 2015 and we’ve got campers from DC, NYC, Minneapolis, Philly, Portland, LA, and beyond. Come on by!
