Open Dates

Saturday, July 6, 2024 - Join us for this inaugural, annual celebration of the New Cosmic Story with evolutionary cosmologists, Earth mystics, and soulcraft guides to the mysteries of nature and psyche. We’ll share insights, conversation, and experiential offerings that have roots in the wisdom of Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Thomas Berry, and Carl Jung. Weaving together mythopoetics, science, spirituality, and embodied practices, this event will further animate the creativity we all need to “reinvent the human at the species level,” as Thomas Berry advocated.
