Imagine a better world.
Then come build it.
What if three days could change the way you see the world?
The Gathering is where that possibility comes alive.
What could Atlantic Canada look like if we got this right? What if you had a hand in creating it?
Join us under the tent at Kingsbrae Garden. For three days, talks stretch our thinking, conversations bring together people who rarely share a room, and art helps us feel what is possible.
Your voice belongs here.

Voices that make us think.
In 2026, we heard from a Royal Society climate scientist, a former German climate diplomat, an Indigenous Elder who teaches Two-Eyed Seeing, business leaders who rebuilt their companies around sustainability, a former power utility executive, an award-winning documentary director, an Obama Foundation Scholar and expert on polarization, and university students. Expect sessions that challenge assumptions, bridge divides and spark action.
Awareness alone doesn’t drive change. People do, one conversation at a time.
Where Conversation Becomes Action
Dialogue is the starting point, not the destination. The annual Gathering anchors a year-round community where ideas mature into collaborations and initiatives that move beyond the tent. Across Atlantic Canada, we want more people to help shape a resilient future. None of us can sit on the sidelines.
The conversation is just beginning, and there is a place at the table for you.

“I left Kingsbrae hopeful because the project has so much possibility. It is already bringing thoughtful people together around important questions. My hope is that future gatherings keep growing into an even braver space, where people are not only heard, but open to being changed by what they hear.”

“Some of the most valuable moments weren't just on stage—they happened in the connections made between sessions, where ideas were shared, assumptions challenged, and new partnerships began to take shape. Thank you to the Kingsbrae Conversations team for creating a space where important conversations can become meaningful action!”
