Book Sale to Benefit Zen Center Outreach Programs

The Zen Center outreach programs for prisoners, the homeless, indigent families, etc. are largely funded by our twice annual book sales. The upcoming book sale is the week of Saturday, April 2 – Saturday, April 9, 2016 at City Center.

Book-Sale

During this week we will be offering a variety of books in good condition on a number of subjects: Buddhism and other forms of spirituality, art, fiction and history.  We invite you to browse and purchase by donation.

You bring home some wonderful books and leave behind the means for us to continue our work with underserved populations.

If you are unable to come to the sale, but would like to support our outreach programs, you may make a direct donation by sending a check to San Francisco Zen Center, 300 Page Street, San Francisco, CA , 94102. Please include a note indicating that you are making this donation to the outreach program.

Features, For Mary Watson

Remembering Mary Watson

I want to invite us to be with Mary's spirit, because she really embodied compassion. When Blanche gave her the precepts, she gave her the name, Eyes of Compassion, Nurturing Teacher, and that's what Mary was.
