Art Retreat
For the 2022-23 academic year, the Art Retreat is October 12-14, 2022.
The Art Retreat is a three day, two night, elective retreat for a small group of juniors and seniors. Its purpose is to examine the ways that artistic expression can serve as a pathway to increased knowledge about the self, increased knowledge of the transcendent, and a deeper level of participation in the world around us. This retreat welcomes different forms of artistic expression, including the visual arts, poetry, movement, music and acting.
Prerequisite: A student must have a particular interest and/or regular practice in the arts in order to attend the Art Retreat. It fulfills the Junior Retreat Requirement.
