At this conference we want to understand how what Rudolf Steiner brought to the world is crucial to a future worth living, and how that vision can remain living and evolve. We will explore the contribution we each can make to gain and fulfill such a vision. Our explorations will proceed thoughtfully, artistically, and out of our own life experience. The goal of our time together is that we gain inspiration to bring something new into our life and into the future.
Our task in evolution is to become more fully human. Anthroposophy supports this evolutionary path.
