Red Clay Sangha is an Atlanta-based Buddhist community that draws from many traditions, especially Vipassana and Zen (our guiding teacher received dharma transmission in the Vipassana Tradition), and a strong sangha (community)-oriented philosophy. 

All are welcome, in person or on Zoom (see the location page for details) - regardless of background, identity, and experience level. We look forward to getting to know you!

If you plan to attend in person: upon arrival please enter quietly, remove your shoes and join in the meditation session if it is in progress.
