Public Programs at Meridian

Meridian seeks to support the adult learner through offering public programs in addition to its degree programs. These programs, formatted as seminars, experiential workshops, and professional programs are taught by Meridian faculty and guest presenters. Like the curriculum in our degree programs, the public programs draw on: spiritual traditions, somatic practices, creative arts, mythology, indigenous wisdom, literary and poetic imagination, deep ecology, mystical philosophy, cultural history, and social critique.

There are several public programs specifically designed to give individuals an introduction to the principles and practices that guide Transformative Learning at Meridian. These programs include: The Soul’s Passion: Practices for Sustaining a Creative Life; Women, Power, and Intimacy; Turning Towards the Darkness: Grief and the Initiation of Men; The Transformative Power of Ritual; and The Art of Conflict: Leadership and the Creative Transformation of Culture.
