We will be hosting another session of Explorer University soon. Please contact Alicia at 503.319.5003 or alicia@cathedralparkcohousing.com if you would like to be a part of it!
Curious about building community and cohousing? Our 6-series Explorer University provides all of the info you will need to decide if cohousing is right for you. All sessions will be on Zoom and acknowledging that this is summer, that people have busy lives, and attending all 5 sessions may be a challenge, all sessions will be recorded and available for EU participants after the session is completed. We’ve got you! 🙂
- 1 – 2 hours per week
- $100 per household
- All sessions are held on Zoom so that our Explorers and Members, near and far, can join in on the fun!
Session 1 – Orientation
Get the lay of the Cathedral Park Cohousing land. Meet a few of our Members and other folks exploring CPC. Learn about cohousing in general and our community specifically. Join us on a tour through the password protected CPC Member Portal of our website where we’ve gathered tons of information to help fuel your journey while exploring our community.
Session 2 – The “Whys” of Cohousing – Visioning Your Future
Session 3 – The Heart of Cohousing – CPC “Happy Hour”
Hear from some of our Members about why they have chosen cohousing for their future and enjoy an informal chat about the true value of cohousing with Members, community supporters, and other Explorers.
Session 3 – Design, Development, Logistics, and Finances – Ask Us Anything!
Join us for a popcorn chat with a member of our CPC Development Circle and other CPC folks to cover topics like logistics, development updates, finances, floor plans, community space usage, finance options, and more, including what homes are available homes and what it’s like to be a part of a quickly forming community. Bring any questions that you might have!
Session 5 – CPC General Meeting
Once a month we host a general Member Meeting. Through observation and participation, you’ll get to learn how we make decisions, learn together, and build connections.
Session 6 – Wrap Up
How’s it going? What else do you want to learn or know? This week we’ll focus on answering questions and next steps on how to reserve your own home.
Cathedral Park Cohousing, Portland, Oregon’s newest cohousing community, is a multi-generational community. We have an urban vibe and amenities, while at the same time have access to hiking, biking, nature strolling, birding and organic farms. We are focused on building connection and belonging – and we are a fun group to boot! Please join us to learn more or share this opportunity with anyone you know who might be looking for a place they belong!
