At The Jar, the conversations do not end when the night does.

For Keira, The Jar has become a place where small talk gives way to something deeper: real questions, safe vulnerability, and people who feel worth holding on to.

“I have never had a boring conversation with anyone at The Jar. I get to meet people who feel worth holding on to. We get ramen. We go to each other’s parties. We introduce one another to our friends.”

Through shared artistic experiences and thoughtful provocations, The Jar creates space for people to ask:

Who are you, really?

Volunteering at The Jar is one way to step out of your usual routine and into something meaningful.

In-room Volunteers help welcome guests, support setup, and keep the experience flowing before, during, and after a Happening.

As Mohammad shared, volunteering gave him a sense of purpose and community he didn’t always find in his daily life.

What if an ordinary object could reveal something extraordinary about the way you navigate the world?

Step into the Perception Box Adventure: an immersive evening blending live music, neuroscience, storytelling, and meaningful conversation.

Participants will explore a collection of curious objects, uncover the surprising stories the mind creates, and discover how personal beliefs, memories, and experiences shape every perception. It’s an invitation to experience firsthand how meaning isn't just found. It’s made.

The evening will be led by Elizabeth R. Koch, a writer and social entrepreneur who developed the Perception Box framework. She is the founder and CEO of Unlikely Collaborators and cofounder of the Tiny Blue Dot Foundation, two mission-driven organizations that bring together storytelling, scientific research, and human development to explore how we experience ourselves and the world.

"You enrich me with what I don’t know, and I enrich you with what I know." 🌀

In this week's Jar Story, Eman shares how gathering around art breaks down barriers and creates a natural doorway into truly seeing one another:

We often stand in rooms full of people and only see the surface. It’s hard to find a real, natural place to begin a conversation that actually matters.

Art gives us somewhere to begin.
It acts as a common denominator.

We gather around a piece, and suddenly, the barrier drops and the conversation opens naturally.

Little by little, artwork stops being something we’re just looking at.
It becomes a doorway into each other,
and we begin to see the other side of the people around us.

When someone steps forward with honesty, the entire room changes.

Benjamin Benne, a Jar Artist, shares how personal openness acts as an invitation for others to bring their true selves forward.

Vulnerability breaks down walls and builds real connection, turning a room of strangers into a supportive community.

“There are parts of home I keep in my pocket, parts I do not share with anybody else.” 🌿

Hosting The Jar creates a moment to bring those hidden parts forward, open the door, and let connection feel possible. For Wilnelia, it turns into an unraveling process, dropping everyday performance so real connection takes place.

Experience The Jar firsthand at an upcoming Happening and see what happens when people show up as their real selves.
