Become a secret member of the Secret Lantern Society!

It’s no secret that your support means the world to us, but do you know all the benefits that await when you officially join our secret society?

More shall be revealed!

A not-so-secret partnership

Secret Lantern Society and the AIA Arts In Action Society became partners in late 2024 with the shared purpose of supporting our beloved Secret Salon Series.

Since 2023 Secret Lantern has hosted over 30 salons in our gorgeous lantern-lit home at Secret Headquarters, offering immersive cultural experiences
that merge art, education, science, diverse traditions, music, and nature in unexpected ways. We love this series and all our creative and inspired presenters!
While we have sought funding from various government agencies, the greatest supporters of the Salons are the presenters themselves, who have generously reduced or waived their fees. We are dedicated to changing this and paying our artists in keeping with industry standards.
You can help!

Fortunately, our partnership with the Arts In Action Society enables us to provide charitable tax receipts for donations of $50 and up.

If you would like to support the many artists and presenters involved in this series, please e-transfer your donation to:

artsinaction.society@gmail.com
NOTE: Please include the words "Salon Series"

We sincerely thank you for your generosity!

Heartfelt thanks to all who celebrated our

31st annual winter solstice lantern festival with us!

We look forward to celebrating our 32nd Annual Winter Solstice Festival with you on

Sunday December 21st, 2025

Secret Headquarters is gratefully situated on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh peoples.

We honor, respect, and give thanks to our hosts.
