Explore Our Many Online Selections

We regularly offer virtual events that focus on a spiritual scientific approach to understanding human life, to enhance our conscious participation in the cycle of the year, and in the world. Topics range from the festival cycle to pedagogy, to caring for the dead, and nourishing the earth ~ and many more aspects of human life as experienced through a true knowledge of the spiritual world. Such an approach not only enhances our own awareness, but nurtures human and planetary health. Most online events are recorded so that they are available after their initial presentation, to support on-going study and research.

On the Wings of Words:

Conversations and Human Relations


These two sessions will take as their focus passages from works of Rudolf Steiner selected and annotated by Gary Lamb, specifically in anticipation of our pre-conference, in-person event with Gary on October 8 (more about this on the conference registration page). 


These two sessions will be facilitated by Timothy Kennedy, Patrick Foster, and Angela Foster, who will guide participants through the profound insights and practical applications collected in Gary's book. 


Each session will include eurythmy, essential elements of the portion of the book under consideration, and conversation. 


If you would like to work with On the Wings of Words ahead of the conference, to support engagement with the mysteries of social encounter.  (the book is available in both print and electronic formats).
