Rudolf Steiner Institute - Summer 2007

We thought we'd pass along this e-mail we received recently in case any of our readers might be interested:

Dear Friends,

 

I want to invite you to participate this July in the Rudolf Steiner Institute experience. The Rudolf Steiner Institute is an educational institution that offers a wide range of learning opportunities to adults who seek to deepen the spiritual foundation of their lives. It is the intention of the Institute to create an open community environment where individuals from diverse backgrounds will feel welcome to experience the spiritually based knowledge of anthroposophy in the context of their own worldview, beliefs, and interests.

 

Bring the whole family! We have outstanding programs for children and adults. The Institute is held at Green Mountain College in beautiful south central Vermont, so you can combine your time at the Institute with a summer vacation in the Green Mountains or by one of Vermont’s beautiful lakes. And to help make it financially possible for you to attend the Institute, the Mid-States Shared Gifting Group of the Rudolf Steiner Foundation has given us a grant that enables us to offer scholarships to residents of the Midwest. Addition financial assistance is also available.

 

At the Institute you will experience a warm and lively community life from morning to night. We offer world relevant courses, taught by an exemplary international faculty, in: Social, Cultural & Ecological Renewal, Spiritual Inquiry, Creativity & the Arts, Education & Parenting, Science & Spirit, as well as Programs for Children & Youth.

We serve healthy, family-style meals lovingly prepared using fresh, wholesome and, whenever possible, organic and locally produced ingredients.

 

The Institute will take place from July 8^th-July 28^th. Come join us this summer. Bring your vital questions and share your unique insights and talents! Whether you come for one, two or three weeks, I think you will find the warmth and depth of the Institute experience to be life transforming.

 

You can contact me with general questions at louisehill@gmail, or you can contact our registrar, Lynn Bufano, at registrar@steinerinstitute.org or 800-774-5191 for registration and financial assistance information. Check out our program and courses at www.steinerinstitute.org.

 

I hope to see you in Vermont!

 

Louise Hill, President
