Foundation Studies in Anthroposophy – Encounter Program

Encountering anthroposophy can be challenging. Envigorate your experience by sharing it with others.

As the world becomes more complex, how can we find connectioin to the ground under our feet and the star of destiny that would guide us?

As our lives become more detached, how can we find connection to each other and a sense of purposefulness in our work?

Come and join us on this journey through anthroposophy together. It will call on your head, heart and hands. It will challenge and enliven you, and like all good journeys, it will leave you changed by the experience.

This program meets once per week throughout the school year and gives you an in-depth experience through lectures, discussions, and artistic activities. The program encourages you to grow in knowledge and understanding with others as you work with a well-qualified and diverse faculty.

You Will:

  • Explore a systematic path through the basic ideas of anthroposophy.
  • Learn through artistic activities: eurythmy, painting, clay, and drawing.
  • Enjoy the satisfaction of meeting fellow students and exploring new ideas with them.
  • Study the rhythms and meaning in your own biography and destiny.
  • See anthroposophy in action at a Waldorf school and a biodynamic farm.
  • Develop a sense for the spiritual reality that points to meaning and purpose in our complex world.
