The Beginning
Turiya’s began as a small, luminous space, a place of enchantment and quiet discovery.
Founded by Jan Jacobsen in 1991, it lived at the heart of the community for 34 years as a sanctuary,
where people came to learn, to connect, and to remember something deeper within themselves.
Many were first drawn in by the crystals, gifts, and objects, but what they found was something far more meaningful: community.
Over time, the space took on a life of its own, shaped by those who entered and by the subtle presences within it.
Among them was a dove named Eme, still remembered as part of the gentle spirit that filled the space.
Though the doors have now closed, the energy remains, carried in the hearts of those who passed through
and in the community that continues to gather around it.
A New Form Emerges
What began all those years ago has not been left behind— it has simply found a new way to live.
Now held by Kristen Dalzen and Stephanie Pappas, Turiya’s Gallery emerges in a new location, carrying forward the essence of what has always been here.
Not a replacement, but a reimagining.
Not separate, but continuous.
What exists now is a different kind of threshold— one that invites a slower presence, a deeper listening, a more spacious way of being.
A place shaped by those who gather within it, and by something quieter that moves beneath it all.
A place to connect. To experience. To come home to yourself.
A Place of Remembrance
Turiya’s Gallery speaks. It calls to people. Not always in words, but in a feeling— a subtle pull, a quiet recognition that draws you closer.
Some arrive seeking stillness. Some come for clarity. Others simply follow that feeling and find their way here.
And in that moment, something begins to shift.
There is a softening. A sense of being met. A gentle remembering of something that has always been there.
This is a place for healing. For release. For the unfolding of self.
Where the world within and around you begins to come into relationship. Where expression is welcomed. Where joy rises freely.
Here, you are met. You are seen. You are safe. You are welcome.
Light moves through crystal and glass, changing with each passing moment.
Sacred objects carry a quiet depth, revealed through presence and attention.
Sound lingers, soft and grounding, like an echo beneath the surface.
Nothing asks anything of you here.
There is no way you need to arrive.
Only an invitation— to notice, to feel, to experience.
And often, what is found cannot be fully explained,
only carried with you.
If you feel the call, we welcome you to experience Turiya’s Gallery for yourself.
