A faculty of accomplished authors, teachers, and agents of social change will be challenged to deliver in-depth material to youth coming from a wide variety of social, ethnic, and educational backgrounds. At the same time, youth will be challenged to stretch their capacities for attention, to integrate deep feelings with focused ideas, and to learn traditional arts and practices.

Daniel Deardorff — February 28-March 2, 2008
Living Myth, Living World
Port Townsend, WA
Living Myth Living World is a year-long course grounded in the understanding that myth is the language and wisdom of the earth — the more conversant we become with the image-laden syntax of myth, the more prepared we are for an encounter with the seen and unseen powers of the living world. Together we will move toward the boundaries of social structure, where living signs speak to us, as in the words of Sean Kane: "Beyond this point is a zone where ordinary human thinking cannot go. You must make a shift to another kind of thinking...." Making ritual objects teaches us to think with our hands; welcoming the crises that make us human teaches us the thinking of the heart; carrying our offerings in heart and hands we will journey into the wilderness to forge deep and abiding bonds with Mountain Spirit, River Spirit, Ocean Spirit, and Grandfather Fire. Working in a "band" of 115-25 people as our hunter-gatherer ancestors did, we create a social matrix to foster our deepest memory of being human in participation with the world around us.
Five sessions:
- February 28-March 2, 2008
