Summer Program

Join fellow students and amazing faculty in classes exploring a diverse array of creative mediums, grounded in daily rhythms of shared meals and gatherings.

Our 2026 theme is RESONANCE.
Community, at its truest, is a resonant body. Each person brings their own frequency—their grief, their joy, their curiosity, their questions—and somehow, when held with care, these differences do not cancel one another out. They create harmony. Not uniformity, but consonance. A shared field where no one voice dominates, and no one is lost.

We can’t wait for you to join us in creative community. Our season begins June 7th and will run through August 1st! Program weeks range from 5 to 6 nights, typically starting on a Sunday.

During the program week, we share rhythms of class, meals, matins, vespers, and studio time. There is ample space for hiking, for hammocks, and for exploring Plain and Leavenworth.
