We're Moving — and Our Services Are Changing

Exciting changes are ahead for Our Turn!

Beginning in Fall 2026, Our Turn will no longer offer regular programming in the Portland, Oregon area.

After decades of dreaming, Aviva, founder of Our Turn, has the means to step away from the fast pace of a culture increasingly shaped by constant transactions and artificial intelligence, and toward a more grounded way of living. She is embracing off-grid life in rural Washington, where she is expanding her skills in the building trades and investing in the kind of hands-on work that strengthens people, homes, and communities.

As Our Turn begins this exciting new chapter, our programming is evolving right alongside us. While we are stepping away from our regular Portland-based schedule, our mission remains unchanged: creating spaces for meaningful relationships, practical learning, creativity, and community resilience.

Consultation, administrative services, workshops, and speaking engagements continue to be available on a limited, by-request basis. Our beloved art and wilderness experiences are continuing in a beautiful new setting in rural Washington, where participants will have opportunities to connect with nature, creativity, and one another in fresh and inspiring ways.

If you have a project, collaboration, workshop, or event in mind, we'd love to hear from you. Please reach out to learn more or to start a conversation about how we might work together.
