At the Buddhist Place we aim to create an environment in which people can learn about and practice the teachings of the Buddha. We organize various events and activities to further Dharma practice, and to increase awareness of Dharma in the Peterborough area. These activities include regular meditation and discussion meetings, and a series of sessions with teachers from different Buddhist traditions.

The Buddhist Place operates through the volunteered time of members. We invite you to participate in all events, and we appreciate any volunteer time you can give. Contributions could include preparing food, set-up and clean-up for events, administrative tasks, transportation or promotion. We welcome and value your input.

The Buddhist Place is a registered charity governed by a board of directors. We have monthly meetings to oversee the day-to-day operations which are open to all members. The meetings encourage participation in the planning and organization of the Buddhist Place upcoming events and welcome individual contributions.
