hear the world, heal the world

Join us on Saturday, May 14th, 2022 for our Hear the World, Heal the World event to celebrate and honor 10 years of the Free Listening Movement!

Since 2012, Urban Confessional has been hearing the world to heal the world. From Los Angeles to Pakistan, Nigeria to Rio de Janeiro, and everywhere in between, volunteers have been holding Free Listening signs and offering a safe, compassionate space where people can be heard.

With musical performances by The Pierces and Rotana, and spoken word performances by Arielle Estoria and Samual Charles. Plus, a special word from Benjamin Mathes, founder of Urban Confessional and Crash Acting Studio.

We'll be celebrating in-person at Crash Acting Studio in Los Angeles, and streaming the event virtually* for anyone across the globe!

*A recording of the event will be sent to anyone who purchases an Early Bird Virtual Admission ticket and/or a Virtual General Admission ticket, regardless of whether or not you are able to watch the streaming live.

This is a fundraising event. 100% of all ticket sales proceeds will go towards helping Urban Confessional expand its mission of changing the world through the power of compassionate, non-judgmental listening. With your help Urban Confessional will be able to continue creating multilingual downloadable training materials and content, collaborating with like-minded organizations, partnering with new media channels, reaching larger audiences, and organizing live events around the world that will bring communities together and help spread the message and practice of non-judgmental compassionate listening.
